Marker - Marker

Marker - MarkerDebut full length album by New Orleans Marker. Written and recorded by Mike Wilkinson, the album exemplifies lush and dreamy pop songs of the highest caliber. Drum patterns propel gorgeous waves of guitars and synths, blurring into perfectly layered vocals. Filled with surprise melodic turns, Marker is a forward take on vaporous song based music. Fans of late 80s proto shoegaze and early 4AD sounds should take note.
