Welcome to the official Web site of Martian Acres and The Martian Acres Band! Martian Acres is home to a dynamic population of two songwriters, who have combined their very different personal and professional backgrounds to create a popular musical repertoire which critics have called "un-nichable."

The Martian Acres Band

And the Band?

The Martian Acres Band—Alternative-Boulder music at its best. The Acres’ songbook runs along a wide musical river. They’ve received international song-writing awards and distinctions in categories as diverse as rock, country, blues, and gospel. Their radio and Internet fans stretch from Paris ("Midnight Blues Radio") to Australia (one of that country’s most downloaded songs in 2007). Their mid-2008 song "Missing You" topped the Acoustic category in the national OurStage competition (one of the major backers of Bonnaroo). And, when you've got 'em live, watch out! On stage, the Acres’ band features only Colorado’s "brightest lights" talent-wise, and their rock-cover repertoire—as one observer noted—is "fearless." That’s why the house is "usually stuffed, and is always rockin’."

Thank you! We appreciate your interest in our mix of fine, original, creative, dynamic, and unusual alt-Boulder music. Listen for yourself: these are all full-length, high quality MP3 selections of some of our favorites...

Acoustic Winner!
Missing You was the acoustic winner in a competition hosted by OurStage, an international music judging site. Competing against an astounding selection of acoustic songs, Missing You was the sleeper hit at the close of competition. Listen for yourself by clicking here. Let the player continue to hear the awesome talent we competed against. It's truly humbling.
