The band’s own label for its unique genre is urban/alt,? though it might better be described as R&B vocals layered over electronica. This male/female duo makes the most of electronic drum kits, sampling, and a plethora of vocal overlays to form a textured tapestry of cool soul that will appeal to the most jaded listener. Though bands such as Portishead and Morcheeba have made inroads in similar styles, no band yet has pushed the envelope as far as Marshall Star. Give this U.K. band huge marks for creativity and an uncompromising attitude. -Dug Marshall Star - the alternative electro guitar duo formed by Big Country and Athletico Spizz 80 musician Clive Parker and UK soul singer Kasie Sharp
