History

Following the hiatus of Red Sparrowes, Red Sparrowes guitarist Emma Ruth Rundle and bassist Greg Burns formed Marriages.[2] The group recorded and released an EP titled Kitsune with drummer Dave Clifford in 2012 through Sargent House.[1] Following the EP's release, the group toured as opening acts for Russian Circles, Chelsea Wolfe in 2012 and Deafheaven in 2013.[3][4] Drummer Andrew Clinco was brought in as a permanent member of the band replacing Clifford. In 2014 the group completed recording for their full-length album while Rundle simultaneously recorded and released her solo debut Some Heavy Ocean during this time.[5] Marriages first proper full-length record, Salome, was released on April 7, 2015 through Sargent House.[6] The release was preceded by a United States tour with Helms Alee and followed by a Europe tour with Wovenhand.[7] The group plans to tour in support of the album throughout 2016 and begin writing for a follow-up release.[8]
