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.
Mariana’s Trench never fails to put in a fantastic show!! I love them and see them every time they come to my city!
I’ve seen Marianas Trench at least 5 times now and every time it’s an incredible experience! This time I did the VIP gold package and it was such a great time being in the second row but with these guys, every seat is a winner. Josh Ramsay is a pro at delivering an unforgettable experience, running out into the audience and making the show memorable and exciting regardless of where you sit. The entire band is so good at crowd engagement and keeping the energy up and flowing. Can’t wait for the next live show!!
This was by far one of the best concert i have been o , as a seasoned rock fan , my wife is a huge fan of mariana’s trench , i was blown away by their live harmonies and throughout the night there was a guy directly behind us that i will call creepo ( the band will know) made a couple joke comments was kind of funny to start then became really annoying that no one was finally responding to his stupid comments, kuddos to the band handling him for the creep that he was , with class act , couldn't of been truly nicer guys great band please go see! Some good hints of a mixture of sound , such as the wall of sound , freddy mercury and beach boys in the hamonies loved it
Unbelievable concert. So much energy, such an amazing performance. Interacted with the crowd, and came right to us when in the crowd. There was a little girl that knew all the lyrics, and was singing along. When Josh came into the crowd he gave her a fist bump and made her, and the whole crowds day! Can't wait to see them again!
The best concert I have seen in ages, the stage presence, the connection with the audience and the guitar playing just awesome!!!!
My favorite band! Great interactive show! We will see them any time they come to Calgary!
Marianna’s trench was amazing as usual. The venue really struggled, very unorganized from entrance, to vip portion, to re entry for the concert.
Loved it! So much fun, they even played some of their older songs which was amazing!! Loved the opening act, L0L0 too! She was awesome!
The show had big energy, awesome sound. Love this band.
Marianas Trench put on an absolutely amazing show. Great energy. Everyone was singing and dancing along. Josh Ramsay hits high notes that most singers couldn't dream of
Not even sure why I need to leave a review, but if you’re wondering if this show is fabulous, it is! I was in the balcony (squishy seats) but people around us stood and danced so we did too. Second time seeing Marianas Trench and hopefully not the last. The only thing I would change is I would be on the floor next time. Lots of merchandise to choose from. The line was literally at least 100+ people long, but they had it very well organized and wrapped around the stairs up to the second balcony and very quickly and efficiently moved you down and through to make your purchase, always replenishing the empty stock. Very well done for a smaller venue! Thank you, Marianas Trench and merch staff!
Band was absolutely amazing. The show fell personal and inclusive. I've never experienced a concert at the Burt and I loved how the band owned the stage and kept the crowd going. My only small complaint is I felt the music was louder than the vocals. I would 100% see marianas trench again.
we had an awesome time. Opening act was great, Mariana trench outstanding as usual. Venue was perfect. We enjoyed popcorn and a beverage. Find the merchandise area very crowded so we didn’t buy anything.
Such a great concert! Hands down one of the best I have ever been to. Love concerts at the Burt. Such an intimate little venue.
The band had everyone standing and singing along. It was fun and energetic. Great show!
Loved it. So fun. Seriously a min of 50 characters for a review. This is dumb ticketmaster.
I've been a fan for years but just seen them for the first time in Kitchener on November 23, 2024 and all I can say is WOW!! It was absolutely an incredible experience, we did the meet & greet got our photo with them and looking forward to seeing them again next year in Niagara with the kids who are also huge fans. You guys are absolutely incredible and I can't wait to see you a second time 😍❤️🎉
literally so amazing, the band was way too kind- meeting them was a dream ❤️ hearing them live blew me away, Josh's stage presence is as captivating as always and I did gain a major crush on Matt Webb seeing him that close up. Immediately bought tickets for their next show close to home. Love you too much Marianas Trench
Had the best time at History watching, and dancing to, Mariana's Trench! Love how close you can get to the stage and that the artist could get through the crowd! Just a really fun time!
My fourth MT concert and I still love it! Wish there had been seats (I'm too old for standing room only lol), but had a great time singing and vibing with my faves!
