Hold Me Up DJ Mix March 2021

Going through your phone and stumbling across old pics of your ex makes you feel so isolated. Marlon and the Shakes captures this heart wrenching feeling in their latest R&B single, “Scrolling”.

Scrolling

We dipped our toes into the #EDM ocean with our March release!  “Bad Timing” is an almost-love song, devoted to the souls who can’t seem to get the stars to align in the name of love. ❤️⭐️

Bad Timing

Ashley Evermore

Neo-soul chill song with both rap and singing, and wonderful real violins. About finding the strength to break free from a bad relationship, and giving yourself the crown.

The Crown

Say It Slowly

This was our first release for the 12 in Twelve project!  It’s called “Hemisphere” and is appropriate for the times. It addresses the disinformation that many succumb to on social media and how that leads to war between two sides of the political spectrum.

Hemisphere

“Shootin’ Shots’ is the 2nd release of Marlon and the Shakes’ 12 In Twelve project; a musical endeavor where the band commits to writing, recording, and releasing one song a month in 2021. “Shootin’ Shots” celebrates the underdogs who finally decide to take a chance at love. Marlon brought in some of the most talented Chicago musicians to collaborate on it, including vocalist Maggie Vagle (Sidewalk Chalk) and percussionist Chris Paquette. It’s a veritable 3 minute party for your ears!

Shootin Shots

Jealousy can drive a person out of their mind. “You make me crazy“ is a song about someone absolutely losing their shit at the thought of their significant other being with someone else.￼  It’s a veritable apology letter, filled with soul and steeped in rhythm and blues. ￼

You Make Me Crazy

Stuck ft. Terrell Burt

Chicago area musician and songwriter for rock outfit SoulFix and the funk/R&B group Marlon and the Shakes.
