Marbin is a Jazz-Rock group based in Chicago IL.

Marbin first started in 2007 as an improvised music duo consisting of Israeli-American guitarist Dani Rabin and Israeli saxophonist Danny Markovitch.[1] Markovitch and Rabin met shortly after Markovitch had completed his military service as an infantry sergeant and Rabin had graduated from Berklee College of Music.[2][3] Since 2008, Marbin has been living in Chicago and performing all over the United States, playing over 250 shows a year with the accompaniment of drummer Justyn Lawrence and Bassist Ian Stewart . They have released three albums: Impressions of a City, as part of Paul Wertico's Mideast-Midwest Alliance, and two under the name Marbin,[4] Marbin as a duo, and Breaking the Cycle with drummer Paul Wertico (Pat Metheny Group), bassist Steve Rodby (Pat Metheny Group), and Jamey Haddad (Paul Simon). Marbin is currently signed to Moonjune Records and Management.

Career

In Chicago

In June 2009, Marbin released their first self-titled album, which was awarded album of the month by The Deli Magazine,[5] and Editor's Pick by Cdbaby.[6]

With Paul Wertico

In October 2008, Marbin met Paul Wertico and was invited to join forces with his long existing trio and to form Paul Wertico's Mideast-Midwest Alliance.[7] The group recorded the critically acclaimed album Impressions of a City for the record label Chicago Session.[8] The album received a lot of praise, including in national magazines, such as Modern Drummer,[9] The A.V. Club (The Onion),[10] Jazz Times[11] and a 4.5/5 stars rating by Downbeat Magazine (4-excellent, 5-masterpiece),[12] and was recognized as one of the best fifty albums of 2010.[13] Impressions of a City[14] was also one of the top fifty best selling albums on CD Universe.

Paul Joined Marbin (and brought Steve Rodby with him)

For their second album, Breaking the Cycle, Marbin expanded to include:[15] Guitarist Dani Rabin, saxophonist Danny Markovitch, drummer Paul Wertico (7 time Grammy Award winner with the Pat Metheny Group), and bassist Steve Rodby (11 time Grammy Award winner with the Pat Metheny Group). Marbin is the first time since Wertico's departure from the Pat Metheny Group[16] (he played drums for the group between the years 1984-2002) that he and Steve Rodby had collaborated in a band together. The years Paul Wertico was a member of the Pat Metheny Group alongside Steve Rodby are considered the golden era of the band (7 Grammy Awards and 3 Gold records).

According to major publications in the US and around the world such as The Chicago Tribune,[17] Maariv, All About Jazz, The Examiner, DRUM!,[18] Jazz Police, and Chicago Jazz Magazine,[19] Marbin's use of new extended techniques, such as looping and prepared-guitar in song form, in addition to their compositions and approach to music, results in music that is innovative and genre-defying.

Breaking the Cycle

In 2011, Marbin released their second album Breaking the Cycle with Moonjune Records.[20] In addition to the quartet, the album features percussionist Jamey Haddad from Paul Simon's band, and folk-singer Mat Davidson from The Low Anthem.[21]

Shows and Festivals

In addition to their regular schedule playing in top venues and festivals in the states (The Jazz Showcase, Magic Bag, Gilly's, Green Mill,[22] Chi-town Jazz Festival, Chicago Jazz Festival)[23] , in September 2011, Marbin toured with fusion super group Scott Henderson, Mike Clark, and Jeff Berlin in a series of venues on the east coast and the midwest. In March 2012, Marbin will be touring with Allan Holdsworth's new trio that consists of Yellow Jackets' bassist Jimmy Haslip, and drummer Virgil Donati
