They’re the UK’s most charismatic band, their live shows a spiritual experience uniting the crowd in free-flow jams of uncategorisable music.

Think post-punk meets free jazz, with lyrics, rooted in rap, that are all about the message. Add the hair-raising sonics of ruthless breakbeats, gnarly guitar loops, transcendent sax and flourishes of psychedelic bass and you have Maruja: this is force-of-nature music, born from a place of spirituality and protest, with a deep four-way friendship at its core.

“a mix of punk, prog, jazz, electronics and experimental song structures, a combo that has them grouped in with the likes of black midi, Squid and Black Country, New Road. As a coworker said earlier today, they could be the band that unites fans of BCNR, IDLES, Makaya McCraven and Chat Pile.” Brooklyn Vegan
