Marshall Fassino, hailing from the heartlands of Wisconsin, embarked on a journey to find his true artistic voice, crafting a remarkable path that has now led to his latest single, “What We’re Sold.” Marshall’s musical odyssey commenced during his college years in the vibrant Minneapolis scene.
Playing gigs across the city, he soon relocated to the sunny shores of California. Here, his journey took an intriguing turn, filled with anecdotes such as opening for Selena Gomez and sharing harmonious duets with Chauntelle DuPree D’Agostino.
Marshall’s chapter with the San Francisco-based band Jet Trash brought him further recognition. The band, known for their raw and unapologetic lo-fi garage rock sound, released EPs produced by Andy Freeman and Alex Newport, capturing the essence of underground rock. They inked a publishing deal, hinting at a promising ascent. However, Jet Trash soon became a footnote in Marshall Fassino’s ever-evolving narrative.
Seizing the reins of his creative journey, Fassino relocated to Nashville. Here, he embarked on a solo endeavour, releasing a series of singles that marked his initial steps into the spotlight. Yet, it’s his latest work that shines the brightest, a forthcoming album titled Ways I Used To Feel.
Before the full album emerges, Fassino treats us to a glimpse of what we can expect with “What We’re Sold.” This track, the fifth and final single leading up to the album’s release, embodies the essence of Marshall’s musical adventure. The song opens with delicately twanging guitar tones that beckon the listener into its sonic world. A gently shuffling beat and pulsing bass guitar lines lay the foundation for Marshall’s layered vocals. As his voice takes flight, it delivers instantly memorable melodies that resonate long after the final note.
“What We’re Sold” is a dazzling indie rock outing, brimming with infectious hooks wrapped in a retro rock aesthetic. In the chorus, the punch of guitar chords over the kick drum creates an anthemic, sing-along moment. With each release, Marshall Fassino’s musical journey unfolds further, revealing a talented artist who blends the timeless allure of rock with a modern charisma. “What We’re Sold” serves as a tantalising preview of what promises to be an exciting debut solo album.
