The Water's Edge

When is the right time to take a chance? Who are the right people? What are the right conditions? March to May was born under unusual circumstances. Neither Darren nor Beth realized the musical potential they shared when they first met in December 2012. It took several chance encounters -- passing vocal harmonies on a trip to the coast with friends, tentative instrumental work one cold winter evening, comments here and there on lyrics and melody -- before the spark hit. But when it did, it didn't take long for them to catch fire. By March 2013 they had co-written their first two songs, by April they had a paid gig under their belts, and by May they had a name and shows booked out into the months ahead. Both halves of the duo are passionate about the music they write and play, and view March to May as a constant evolution; from pursuing collaborations with other artists (with styles ranging from classical to hip hop and electronica) and keeping an ear attuned to the myriad ways they can expand the range and expression of their own music, their primary interest is to keep the music fresh and personal. And, above all, to keep love - love for the music, love for each other, love for the world they live in - at their core. Reviews: "The entire album is an emotional force to be reckoned with, with voices that intertwine like winds; each song feels like an element of its own." - Blue Harvest Records "The Water’s Edge is hauntingly beautiful music with an ethereal, soulful feel. Extremely relaxing to listen to, yet so lyrically brilliant you hang on every word... This album is a refreshing example of what genuine artistry really is and of the beauty that can be created when two people come together to create something amazing." - Jamsphere.com "Together Beth and Darren create something very powerful. Beautiful at times, and heartbreaking at times –their voices and instruments meet and give birth to some of the most delicate and elegant sounds I have heard in a long time." - All What's Rock "Even among the sea of modern rock bands that the west coast is, it’s clear to see that March to May truly is something special." - MusicExistence
