Philadelphia harmony group Market East were introduced to the world via their mysterious, haunting self-titled EP in 2010. The band, which features Kurt Cain on vocals, Vincent John on vocals, bass, guitar and keys, and Maxwell Perla on vocals, drums, and percussion, mixed Everly Brothers harmonies, a lo-fi Velvet Underground recording style, and poetic lyrics reminiscent of Simon & Garfunkel and the Zombies. The result was a raw, timeless sound that left a lasting impression on listeners.

In 2025, Market East finally returned with its most soulful and poignant offering to date, the single “Roses.” Recorded to tape in Philly at Eraserhood Sound Studios, “Roses” is undoubtedly the funkiest and most powerful Market East has ever sounded. They followed up “Roses” with the dreamy “Circles of Time.” The group creates a hypnotizing sonic landscape reminiscent of Brian Wilson, only if he had spent a summer in Brazil listening to cosmic country records with Quarteto Em Cy.

In April of 2026, the group released their debut album French Street. The record, produced by the band and Eraserhood Sound, is a powerful reflection on the past, seen through the lens of someone slightly older and wiser. The arrangements are rich and complex, the lyrics aching and nostalgic. It is a monumental statement from an extremely talented group. French Street will be available worldwide April 3, 2026.
