okaaay we’re blushinnnng!!
thank you so much to all our friends and all our friends moms that nominated us for the sonic guild artist grant!! we are feeling super loved and fortunate to make it to the second round. with so much corporate greed in the world right now taking from artists, it means the world to have organizations like @sonicguildseattlewa show up in support of our community. this grant shows that local artists are still seen, valued, and supported in this city.
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO NOMINATED US!! Drop an emoji in the comments so we can kiss u right on the mouth and thank you IRL!!

Happy birthday to my best friend. I love you sooo so much. You’re the funniest person I know, you’re so kind and giving to everyone in your life, and you’re the 🦑. Bones, Haddie, and I are so happy we get to spend our days with you.
I love you dearly @false_chanterelles .
There’s so much going on with MARBLE that I have to pause and reflect before I miss the moment. We released our EP “beautiful things disappoint” a week ago. This is the first time that Chantel and I co wrote every song together, and the first time that Chantel, Jonny, Matt, TJ, and William recorded together. I don’t open up very often, to a fault. These songs are a way for me to connect with people in my life because I don’t often talk about myself. We are on tour as of yesterday, we are in Tacoma tonight, Portland tomorrow, and we end the run in Seattle. I hope to see you soon.
SUMMER TOUR, 2024!
we’re teaming up with east coast indie emo sweeties, @valleyheartma to make our yearly west coast tour bigger and better than ever.
the venues are #blessed, the bills are stacked to heaven, and we put a new stereo in the tour van so you’re gonna hear us coming ❤️🔥
get your tickets ⛓️ before your luck runs out for what Rolling Stone is already calling “the longest MARBLE tour yet”

✦MARBLE X KEXP✦
we are THRILLED to announce that ~oblivion~ is premiering on KEXP TONIGHT!!
»»» tune in to Audioasis (90.3 FM) from 6-9 PM PST
KEXP is Seattle’s cool big brother who tells you what music to like, the white whale of the Seattle music scene; a tastemaker, a huge supporter of local artists, and one of the last true public radio stations that not only still *exists* but keeps the heartbeat of radio alive and well.
KEXP has been on our bucket list since the womb, so no we won’t be playing this one cool, not even a little bit, not even at all シ
Thank you to @alivinghumangrrrl // @audioasiskexp // @kexp for putting us on the air!
~oblivion~ is out everywhere on Jan 26th. presave ⛓️ is up.

“Lonely when I’m in plain sight…”
our new single ~oblivion~ comes out everywhere next friday (Jan 26th)
It’s for those of us that feel forgotten, invisible, unknown, even (maybe especially) when surrounded by our closest friends.
I won’t say much about it today, except that ~oblivion~ is our first release in over a year so we knew we had to make it special.
we worked with a kickass producer, recorded for the first time as a full band, booked time at a legendary Seattle studio, and poured our hearts and souls into making this song come alive.
this is our love letter to the lonely hearts club. to our younger and older selves. to the long hairs and the buzzed heads, and the people who don’t fit into any clean, stupid little box. to the servers that scream in their car on their way to work. and to the strangers on the internet who find our gloomy music cathartic.
~oblivion~ is out jan 26th ⛓ presave in bio
