Mares make the kind of music you’ll want to put on at dusk on a road trip through expansive landscapes. They play with a distinct connection to their Australian context, with bold vocals and picturesque sounds that teeter between light and dark, wonder and discontent.
Inspired by the music of Rowland S Howard, PJ Harvey and The Triffids, Mares fuse the restlessness of inner-city Melbourne with imagery of oceans and rural bush-scapes. Their driving bass, arching guitars and intricate pace offer a glimpse into the expansion that exists outside of the city, in open landscapes.
Having captivated audiences throughout their first four years of existence, Mares have performed alongside the likes of Mere Women, Ouch My Face, No Sister and more. Now they are ready to emerge from the shadowy depths of the Melbourne music scene with the release of their debut album.
