Originally a late night college radio show, Portland based indie folk rock trio Mars FM takes you on a journey that starts rooted in the earth, drifts into the cosmos, and lands you softly on desert sand. Inspired by their adventures together around the world and their ever deepening relationship with the unknown, Co-hosts Zack and Zoe create music that reaches down into the heart and pulls up something honest. With choir honed harmonies, dreamy guitar textures, and words found in the gleaming pool of quiet moments, Mars FM radiates a warmth that welcomes all creatures; whether wee, fuzzy, slimy, or invisible. Be you cruising under desert stars or sipping tea on a rainy afternoon, Zack, Zoe, and Eli invite you to escape the ordinary and ride the waves of their analog dreams.

quotes:

Close up and wide panned, lush Dreamy soundscapes with hauntingly beautiful vocals, guitar, and pedal steel set in steady rocking grooves

-Charlie rose of elephant revival

Mars FM takes you by the hand and walks you through a playful sonic dreamscape. Venturing through flowing melodies, rolling textured arrangements and distorted peaks, you’ll feel like you’ve been cast off into an ever changing sea on a thunder cloud.

—Zach Jackson of Mama Magnolia

If you want to go somewhere otherworldly, while at the same time savoring clear, quirky, delicious harmonies and clever human lyrical antidotes, tune into Mars FM.
