Album Review: Marah, If You Didn’t Laugh, You’d Cry
If You Didn’t Laugh, You’d Cry Marah release date 10/18/2005 Yep Roc Records Twangville Rating: 4.0 stars out of five “Folk-punk”, that’s the way Marah describes their new album.

Download Marah’s “City of Dreams”
Download “City of Dreams” from Marah’s forthcoming album, If You Didn’t Laugh, You’d Cry (due: 10/18/2005).
