DUBLIN & UNITED STATES | DATES |
OVERVIEW Torc, the three-piece band featuring vocalist Marlo [Phoenix, Arizona], Fran Long and Ken Crotty [Dublin] are taking their studio-based urban guitar fusions to venues in Ireland. Formed by veteran musicians Fran Long and Ken Crotty torc was conceived as a project producing music that reflects the multitude of influences they share, from soul, funk & jazz to pop, hip-hop and dance music producing a distinctive sound of seedy guitars mixed with the sultry tones of vocalist Marlo. torc shapes and flirts with bold questions and dark, honest truths that turn down suspicious corners, peek behind thick private walls, and lead you around unsuspecting bends that just never seem to quite go away. Their very unique modern sound centers around a magnificent, bold and blue-blooded voice that flaunts and demurely teases, and that perfectly suits their own musically fascinating, distraught and narcotically estranged character; then dares you to follow along on their very different kind of reality ride. Their music is apt to amp you up a bit, but not likely to let you down. torc's soon to be released debut EP 'Grace' will feature some of the tracks on their MySpace page. 2007 - Release of 'Sleeping With The Enemy' E.P. 2009 - Release of 'Grace' single [] 2011 - Release of 'The Last Love Song' album [01 October] |
