Carl Marah performs an intimate hometown show, live at this year’s edition of the Dunbar Music Festival.
With a guitar in his holster and a full clip of songwriting ammunition at his disposal, Carl Marah is answering the beckoning call of the wandering troubadours before him; stepping out to bring his own distinct hue of musicianship to stages far and wide across the land - on his own terms.
Having cut his teeth in the Edinburgh music scene for the past ten years, most notably co-leading psychedelic pop outfit Logan’s Close across the nation and throughout Europe, he is now cultivating his own solo venture, using it as a vehicle to realise treasured compositions he has amassed during this tenure.
Drawing inspiration from the likes of Sixto Rodriguez, Donovan and Paul Simon, his songbook ranges from tender acoustic ballads to haunting electrified anthems. Exploring all possibilities and channelling whatever he sees fit into his music, this is a performer who demands to be heard.
