Marian is a rock trio known for rich harmonies, gritty riffs, and hook-driven songs. Their sophomore album, Play Louder, Hit Harder (PLHH), weaves together themes of adulthood’s relentless grind and the uncertainty of what lies ahead. PLHH’s raw energy launches the band into their next chapter with a sharper edge and reinvigorated sound.
