MP3 Ermine - The Murra
10 MP3 Songs
ROCK: Progressive Rock, ROCK: Hard Rock
Details:
Ermine is the brainchild of Matt Belyea (vocals, guitar), Mike Belyea (drums) and Chuck Teed (bass, keyboards). The band is named after a weasel with a white winter coat, but the moniker is insignificant; the trio just enjoyed how the word rolled off the tongue.
Like the name, Ermine’s music is hard to peg down, but is best described as post-prog rock, a cleaner, more concise spin on the traditional progressive school of song crafting. Influences come from all ends of the spectrum - rock, metal, classical and jazz are all part of the band’s musical canon. The result is simultaneously ear pleasing and awe inspiring.
Ermine’s meticulous methodology is evident on their sophomore album The Murra. Recorded in Halifax by Laurence Currie (Sloan, Wintersleep) and mastered by Noah Mintz (Broken Social Scene, Death From Above 1979), The Murra showcases the band’s evolution as songwriters while highlighting each member’s musical maturation.
The Murra builds on the foundation the band set with their debut album Maps of the Rise and Fall. Independently released and distributed, Maps peaked at number 24 on the Canadian College Charts, received critical acclaim across North America and was nominated for multiple industry awards (MIANS, ECMA).
Ermine performs regularly around the maritimes is currently performing around eastern Canada.
