March to May Brief Bio
March To May’s Darren Guyaz (guitar, vocals, keyboard) and Beth
Wesche (Celtic harp, vocals) first met in December 2012. By March
2013, the folk/indie/Americana duo had co-written their first two
songs, by April they had a paid gig under their belts, and by May
they had a name and shows booked out into the months ahead. Before
settling in Seattle, Washington, where the act is now based, both
Darren and Beth had traversed the Western Hemisphere separately.
Darren migrated from the northern Appalachians to his birth-state
of Montana, before heading on a South American adventure across the
Andes mountain range, eventually falling in love with Seattle and
the Pacific Northwest. The daughter of a US Foreign Service
Officer, Beth also spent time in the Andes, as well as a host of US
states on both coasts, before moving to Seattle, just blocks from
where her beloved Celtic harp had been created, years before. The
duo has drawn comparisons to acts like The Civil Wars, Damien Rice,
the Swell Season, The Banner Days, and Robert Plant and Alison
Krauss. The Water’s Edge is the debut release from March To May,
out April 25th, 2015.
