Artist description In a world full of pop punk bands trying to be emo, emo bands trying to be hardcore, hardcore bands turnng into metal, and metal bands starting to rap, it's a rare occasion you find a band with honest music written from the heart. A band that, instead of looking for the next big thing, just writes what they think sounds good to them. Dear Marla is that band. From energetic yet poetic vocals, to shredding guitar lines, Dear Marla blends the genres of punk, emo, and metalcore into their own personal brand of music, free of labels and expectations.
