Marianas Trench in Concert
Multi-Platinum selling progressive pop band Marianas Trench has been big news in Canada for years, and they caught on with US audiences in a major way following their acclaimed 2015 album Astoria, a slick collection of larger-than-life pop masterpieces that showcased their playful lyrical sensibility and knack for anthemic choruses. In concert, Marianas Trench is a whirlwind of emotion and attitude, rocking the stage with adrenaline-filled performances that put their tight musicianship front and center. Frontman Josh Ramsay is a born performer, and his energy is completely infectious as he sings his heart out on upbeat jams like "This Means War" and "Celebrity Status." The rest of the band keeps pace with lively performances that always leave fans thoroughly rocked and ready for more.
Marianas Trench Background
Marianas Trench was formed in Vancouver in 2001 by Josh Ramsay, a singer-songwriter and guitarist who previously fronted the group Ramsay Fiction. He joined forces with Matt Webb (lead guitar), Mike Ayley (bass), and Ian Casselman (drums), and Marianas Trench made their debut in 2002 with a self-titled EP. In 2006, the band released their full-length debut album Fix Me on 604 Records, which they supported with extensive touring across Canada. The album went gold in Canada, but its success paled in comparison to the band's 2009 sophomore LP Masterpiece Theatre, a Top 5 hit on the Canadian Albums Chart that established them as pop royalty virtually overnight. Their third album Ever After was equally well-received, cracking the Top 10 and earning a prestigious Juno Award nomination for Album of the Year, and earning the band the title of Juno Award winners for Group of the Year in 2013. Their fourth album Astoria earned them a 2016 Juno nomination for Group of the Year and unleashed the power ballad Who Do You Love. It also opened up Marianas Trench to the European market where the band toured twice in support of Astoria. Currently in the studio, Marianas Trench is hard at work putting the finishing touches on their 5th album set for release in early 2019.
For being the first event to kick off there tour, it was a great show! Love the costumes, the lighting, and Josh Ramsay flying through the air and getting up close and personal it was very entertaining! Couple technical difficulties but otherwise it's worth the money to see live!! Josh Ramsay has lots of talent that he show cases throughout the entire show.
It's was amazing they are so funny and had so much fun up there, tey talked to the crowd and went into the crowd And came out in there underwear
All the performers were unforgettable! I already liked dww and they had to be the most interactive to get us pumped for Marianas Trench! Jesse Giddings was the perfect start to it all...Then when Josh came out flying, that was amazing to see and they really got the crowd going with all they're songs!!! You definitely have to see these guys in concert!
Honestly this was my first concert ever and it was brilliantly done they put so much work and effort into it and sound amazing. I would see them again in a heartbeat
Marianas Trench is one of the most amazing bands live. Josh Ramsay has such talent, engaging the audience while still doing an amazing live vocal show. The rest of the band, Matt, Mike and Ian are also engaging to the audience and all the boys hold such immense talent that you will become a Trencher for life just by seeing them once. I will never miss another live show in my area again and will even travel to see them. AMAZING performers.
best show ever! would totally recommend you go and see them you will have a blast. from the momant they first come on stage and josh starts singing "can you hear me" to the very end you will be swept to another world filled with rad tunes and a breath taking preformance!
Marianas Trench has a wide range of songs and fans from all over world!!!!! What more is there to say Josh is super hot and talented, Matt also talented but not as hot, and Ian funny and brains of operation, and Mike. . . Mike is bass player. BEST BAND EVER!!!!!!!!
AMAZING... JUST AWSOME BEST CONCERT EVER I HAD SO MUCH FUN THERE WAS LIGTH SABERS IN THE STANDS AND A GIRL THAT HAD A SIGN THAT SAID " KISS ME IM SIXTEEN " AND JOSH SAID " OHHH HONEY YOUR TO FAR AWAY"
FREAKING BEST BAND EVER. Honestly, if you go you will not regret it. They are amazing, funny, plus cute ;) Caution : Complete and utter obsession.
They are amazing!!! SOooooooo good live!!!!!! I love them soooo much!! Jakalope was not so good though and the magician was pretty boring. I wish they had just skipped the opening acts and played even longer. They are sooooooooooooo AMAZING!!! The best ever!!!! <3
Loved it! They put on a great show. The venue was awesome, and I even enjoyed the opening act.
I took my son to a music festival this summer and saw this band for the first time, I quite enjoyed them. i promised him that if they played an indoor venue that I would take him to see them again. The November show was the 4th time we had seen them and by far the best show....they left nothing undone. It was truly one of the best performances I have ever seen. For that I thank them.
Marianas Trench were amazing! They sang all their most popular songs and really put on a show and got the crowd pumped up. The only problem was the length of the concert. A lot of people had to leave before it was over because the last train was at 12! They started late and then made us wait almost an hour before Stereos came on because there was too much pushing in the front. If people were mad about being pushed they should have gone and sat on the benches, not made everyone else move back. Other than that it was great. The opening bands were pretty good, especially Stereos.
One of the best nights my best friend and i had in a while. A little shaky at first, the first band and the stereos' had a small mic glitch, but honestly, everything else was just awesome! It was really cool that they had the two separate sides set up for the 19+ keeping the drinking separate from the young-ins. MT are one of the best groups out there, cant wait till they are back in toronto again!
josh was at the hotel that we stayed at!!!!! and we got our picture with him! the concert was the best . josh was so funny he kept talking about the superdog posters every were.
Concert was amazing. Especially loved that illScarlett came out and signed autographs and also handed out free CD's!!! How cool is that! Marianas Trench - amazing! Really loved the fact that they came off stage and sang in from of us that were in the front rows! Wow! Got some greats close up pics! Loved the Stereos ! What more can I say. Unforgettable night would love to go again! Can't remember the name of the girl from Toronto that got to sing on stage. She did such an amazing job and her voice was angelic! Way to go and look forward to hearing more from her. Hopefully she gets noticed career wise!
An amazing concert, and very well organized. This is the 4th time I have accompanied my daughter and her friends to a Mariana's Trench concert, and each and every time has been great, but this time was THE BEST!!! ill Scarlet and Stereos were good. Mariana's Trench put on a fantastic show. They are so talented and entertaining, their music vocals are superb, Equally impressive were the security guards and organizers. No parent enjoys watching young kids being crushed by the crowd, and security having to pull people out from the front because they cannot take the pressure any longer. This time it was wonderful to see how something was actually done, very effectively, to move the crowd backwards, and opening op more space on the floor and in the stands. Great job. Also very appreciated to watch security and police giving water to the thirsty fans in the crowd. The venue was excellent with plenty of seating as well as floorspace, and the fact that we could all line up indoors was a HUGE bonus. THANKS!!!
The venue seemed to be disorganized and somewhat unprepared, but the concert was awesome!! All three groups put on a fabulous, energetic show. Kudos to all :) Only drawback...we waited for Josh & the guys to come out & sign autographs, but they never showed :( C'est La Vie, we got pics with the lead singer of illScarlett, so all was not lost!!
This concert was completely unforgettable. I think Marianas Trench is amazing live, and should continue to bring this joy to their fans.
yes, it would have been AMAZING! except for the fact they scheduled the concert for EXACTLY the same time as the Royal Winter Fair...so i couldnt see them. i would have bailed on the Royal Winter Fair (becuz i LOVE marianas trench! ♥) but my grandparents got tickets 6 months in advance to get good seats...so i did the right thing and went with them. but i am FREAKING OUT that i was actualy in the same building as marianas trench but i COULDNT SEE THEM!!!! i was too busy making my family happy by watching horses jump over sticks!! i think that people SHOULD NOT schedule a concert on THE SAME DAY and THE SAME TIME when another major thing is going on there.
