- "We've always thought of
TRUBADOR as a global band.
We'd like to thank our
fans for helping that
dream come true." - Marcoe
"Marcoe has
a great and powerful
voice. They have a
rock-sounding rhythm
that's melodic, with
excellent riffs. Songs on
"Earth" reflect a serene
side while generating
power, like a volcanic
eruption. We believe
objectively that TRUBADOR
is a group that is the
most pleasing to
discover." - Bryan, ONYX
Metal Magazine
(France)
"Hard rock with serious
tonalities, low
omnipresence, a clear
battery in mid tempo with
the whole accompanied by a
serious and melodic voice.
The album remains very
involving and filled with
hooks." - Celtikwar, Soil
Chronicles (France)
"Trubador is a band worth
discovering and exploring
musically. Their music was
created from the inside
and not for the need to
succeed. Do not expect
songs from Trubador to be
your typical three-minutes
in the structure. Their
attitude toward record
companies says it all: "if
you're a record company
that cares only about 100%
money and nothing else
.... F' off"." - Dimitris
Karvounis, RockWay
Magazine (Greece)
"You are still able to
find the rare gem that
breaks the mold dictated
by the mainstream, and
Trubador is one such band.
The self-released debut,
Earth, raises the bar for
the genre. Trubador takes
a melodic approach to the
mid-90's sound with Earth.
Every song on the album
consistently delivers the
goods. This is highly
recommended." - Jacob
Ball, The
SODA SHOP (USA)
"Here's the deal...we can
be friends provided you
continue playing
ass-kicking music like
what you got on your
profile...I didn't want to
click away while I was
previewing your tunes cuz
I was jammin! Would you be
so kind as to send me a CD
so I can play you on the
radio?" - The
Rock 88.7, Cleveland
OH (USA)

metal.
ROADRUNNER

Megadeth, Rob Zombie,

mess with our artistic
freedom.
TOP ALBUM ~ CD BABY
We made the #1 spot in CD
Baby's Post Grunge
category. Thanks to those
who purchased from there.
We rely on you since we're
not a "signed" band at
this time. It was an honor
to be in that category and
place #1.
HIT #3 ON ROCK CHARTS
We're recently hit number
3 on ReverbNation's Rock
charts for Nashville, TN.
We passed Paramore a while
back and are now nearing
the number one spot for
"rock" of any genre in the
greater Nashville area.
Thanks for all your
support
TURN DOWN TWO RECORD DEALS
This is kind of old news
but worth mentioning: We
recently turned down two
record company deals. LHP
Records outta England
offered the band a 7 year
contract & Empty
Vessel Records outta
Atlanta GA offered us a 2
year record deal. We
turned them down. it
wasn't exactly what we
were looking for. 2
managers & 5 booking
agents also made offers in
that year.
Store
CD, MP3,
RINGTONE, SHIRTS.
Our physical Cd's are
'pressed' off the master,
not duplicated like most.
We sign all cd's sold
directly through us.
TRUBADOR is
an American rock band
based out of Nashville TN.
They have melodic driven
songs with originality,
depth, emotion and plenty
of hard-driving drums. The
singer vocalizes most
songs with a heavily-felt
presence. Sometimes they
lighten up with acoustic
work but still remain
firmly infused in their
heavier roots.
They've been described as
having the sadness and
haunting sounds of Black
Sabbath, to the heavy feel
of Alice in Chains in some
songs. Most of their fans
are music listeners who
enjoy long listens, album
rock, 90's heavy/grunge
style and 70's metal
bands. With a requirement
of strong song writing.
TRUBADOR is a rule
breaker. Known frequently
to break rock-song rules
by having many structures
built within each song.
They continually will push
the boundaries of a
listener. This can range
from having no chorus, to
no singing on a chorus,
using half vocalized and
half instrumental songs,
going straight acoustic,
and using a range of
lyrical content from three
worded songs to 9 minute
epics.
They're described best by
their fans as very
original, kick ass rock
band with a return to
serious music writing as
an art form. - "We place a
lot of emotional trust in
our listeners. We know we
don't always follow the
rules of what your
"supposed to do" or what's
popular for musicians
today but we're guided
more by what we feel the
song needs and how we feel
when listening to it.
Ultimately we leave all
the trust to the ears of
our listeners and fans.
They're really what it's
all about for us. Getting
our music into their hands
and building a
relationship with them."
Record Label Offers: We've
received two record label
offers so far but rejected
both. We'll consider any
serious record label or
manager offer that doesn't
control our creative
output or vision. Our
music is our life. That
and our beliefs. That's
all we have in this world.
You wanna kno what heaven
on earth is? Its getting
into that groove, getting
lost in the song, having
sweat pour down your face
and looking up to see
someone in the audience
"sharing" that moment with
you man. There's no price
to be paid for that. It's
not having a record label
control your music, videos
or God help you... having
to do a "Best Buy Tour"
playing next to the
headphones and mp3
players! We will not be
whored out. That's not
what we're about. Having a
"cool" banner on myspace
or performing on some lame
8 am, coffee-buzzed tv
show with "perky" hosts is
about as far away from
TRUBADOR's as you can get.
We're not interested in
looking pretty or becoming
a spokesperson. PS: if
you're a record company
that cares about 100%
money and nothing else....
F' off - marcoe , criss

not make "live" music a
dying art...
