NEW SIGNING: MARCH TO MAY

Maximal Music Sync is delighted to welcome Seattle-based indie folk band March to May to our family of artists and songwriters!

From their first encounter around a roaring bonfire on the Washington coast to headlining sold-out shows at Seattle’s most prominent venues and touring throughout the U.S. and Europe, March to May has quietly become a group to watch in today’s modern folk landscape. They released their debut album Through the Night in late 2017, earning rave reviews from publications such as Glide Magazine, The Revue, and Surviving the Golden Age, and drawing comparisons to acts like Damien Rice, the Swell Season, and Florence & the Machine. Their 2nd full-length album, released on September 1st, 2020, premiered on American Songwriter. Both of their albums have aired on dozens of community and AAA radio stations across the United States, including PRI / NPR's Echoes program. 

The band layers mesmerizing harmonies and intimate lyrics over harp, acoustic guitar and piano, augmented by lush violin and cello, delicate drum patterns and electric bass. They continually push against genre boundaries to create a sound that is simultaneously familiar and foreign, integrating folk instrumentation with chamber pop and indie rock influences to create a cohesive sound that’s rich in color and texture.
