About This Item
The Bielankos, with Kois and Mahon, left for Wales in late 2001 to record their third CD, Float Away With the Friday Night Gods with former Oasis producer Owen Morrisand featuring Bruce Springsteen on vocals and guitar on the title track. It was released on Artemis Records in 2002. This spurred controversy amongst the band's early supporters due to it's decidedly Britpop sound. In 2003, Marah returned to the auto garage (Franks Auto Body, aptly renamed InchThe MarageInch) and recorded their fourth record, 20,000 Streets Under the Sky, and also played a series of shows in late October/early November, much to the delight of their devoted fan base. The CD was released on Yep Roc Records in 2004. The band toured to support this album with Jon Wurster (of Indie rock-stalwarts Superchunk) on drums, Mike InchSlo-MoInch Brenner on Lap steel guitar, and Kirk Henderson on bass and keyboards.
