The Illinois Entertainer
Heading to L.A. to record the full-length Field may have been
the best plan of attack for pop/rock locals MariZen. The female
fronted foursome teamed up with experienced producer DeWayne Barron
(Matchbox Twenty), who lifts the group's zesty rhythms, new wave aura,
and Blondie-esque beats to the next level. "Real" could
potentially break out as a single, and even if it doesn't, should at
least attract larger audiences to the band's shows where they'll hear
glossy but not overdone power pop with an '80s tint. (Contact:
