StillMarillion pay tribute to the classic Eighties ‘Fish era’ of Marillion. Formed in 2008 from a love of the band's early material, the band is comprised of four talented and experienced musicians who accurately recreate the complex, intricate sounds of early Marillion. Together with a vocalist with an authentic Scottish accent who sings the songs with intense passion and emotion, it's a formidable combination.
The band performs a broad selection of tracks from the first four Marillion albums, from the big hit singles such as 'Kayleigh', 'Lavender', 'Incommunicado' and 'Sugar Mice', all the way through to classic album tracks such as 'Script For A Jester's Tear', 'Fugazi' and other forgotten gems.
Performing the length and breadth of the UK, StillMarillion have garnered a loyal crowd, with some travelling across Europe to see the band. The band have, on occasion, shared the stage with Marillion's own Steve Rothery and Mark Kelly.
SATURDAY 13th OCTOBER - STILLMARILLION (FISH-ERA MARILLION TRIBUTE) @ FARNHAM MALTINGS - £17 seated / £15 standing
StillMarillion were the first of many bands I (Julian Lewry) have co-promoted with White Mountain Promotions since 2014 and am pleased to be doing so again although I will sadly miss this show in Farnham as I will be busy in Farncombe with Sounds of Simon that evening! StillMarillion are the definitive tribute to Fish-era Marillion and set out to capture the atmosphere of those Eighties gigs performing the early Marillion material which is seldom performed by Marillion or Fish these days.
