The Marquis - Meet Me at the Mountain

by Ian McAmmond (Volunteer)

Local

The Marquis
Meet Me at the Mountain

  • Label: Independent
4 out of 5 stars

Local pop-country outfit The Marquis deliver an upbeat offering of feel-good originals on this short, six-song album. Meet Me at the Mountain showcases the songwriting talents of Kevin Kratsch and Kyle Bridges, two men who clearly know what they want in a song. The album is smooth, polished and ready for radio. Nonetheless, standout track “Meet Me at the Mountain” demonstrates that these guys can get gritty, with special guest Murray Jowett’s fiddle adding a certain amount of street cred. All in all this album is easy to get into and can fit into a variety of genres. Sure to be a hit with a wide array of music lovers, Meet Me at the Mountain is a solid first album from these hometown boys.
