Marshal Riley

About

Heartfelt, goofy, and devastatingly romantic, these are all things that describe Marshal Riley. It’s not just love songs (although there's a lot of them), there are many aspects that make Marshal the musician he is today. As a producer, musician, and songwriter, it's not a stretch to say that music is a big part of his life.

The label of "indie-folk" only scratches the surface of influences that add up to his sound. It's folky, jazzy, and has hooks that you'll be humming for days on end. This unique blend of styles stem from the artists/bands that inspire him like Ben Folds, Bon Iver, The Beatles, and Sufjan Stevens.

He's made a name for himself in the local Winnipeg music scene, doing shows at The Osborne Taphouse, Park Alleys, Handsome Daughter, and Public Domain. He opened for the band Spectrums in 2023 with his bandmate Karina Joy, to whom he continues to perform with today.

With a background of music production, theatre and songwriting, Marshal provides a musical experience truly unique to him.
