Release Notes:
Not a band per se, the Marbles is the alias of
singer/songwriter Robert Schneider, better known as
the frontman of the Apples in Stereo.
Originally a four-track solo project, the Marbles
began in March 1992 in the Denver, Colorado
apartment Schneider shared with fellow Ruston,
Louisiana native and future Olivia Tremor Control
founder W. Cullen Hart; primarily a solo project,
its sunny pop reflected Schneider's ongoing love of
the Beach Boys, incorporating Casios and toy musical
instruments into his gentle, guitar-based songs.
A compilation of material entitled "Pyramid Landing
and Other Favorites" appeared in 1997 and a much
anticipated new record "Expo," mixed by Mark Linnett
(Brian Wilson's "Smile"), is being readied for an
early 2005 release through SpinART (US) and
Trattoria (Japan).
