Nostalgic rocky canyon magic brewing in Seattle, WA. Music reminiscent of many eras, especially Seattle in the 90’s, CBGB’s in the 80’s and Laurel Canyon in the 70’s, Temple Canyon is Nostalgic Seattle Rock. Give your ears a trip down memory lane...
TEMPLE CANYON is centered around the rapturous voice and nostalgia-inducing melodies of lead-singer/guitarist Mariko Ruhle. the sound is completed by drummer Al Reiter's invaluable singer-songwriter sensibilities and bassist Jason Shao's producer/engineer and multi-instrumentalist brimming capacity. Temple Canyon's foundation has been consistently built on raw song material. Al Reiter & Jason Shao have always enthusiastically embraced the ever so constant stream of songs produced by Mariko Ruhle and with grace occasional co-writes featuring Al Reiter on lead vocals have been incorporated. The music is always evolving and yet maintains a comforting stability; it has a natural feel, wild raw energy and intense vulnerability. Breaking expectations and pushing boundaries of the live experience is deeply desired. It's music to dance to, cry to and fall in love to. Music therapeutically tinged with melodrama to remind us that even our darkest moments are beautiful. Juxtaposition of dark and light is a constant, never leaving you hanging too long on the edge of loneliness; there is always a little sunlight to follow in the form of an undeniable dance beat, a heart pounding bass line, a warm guitar riff to echo through your mind all day, or a saccharine sweet lyric. In this unrecognizable creative climate that overflows with talent, Temple Canyon is three serious music lovers facing the post-apocalyptic modern world of the music industry with hope and desire.
Follow us down into the canyon, into the hollow temple, where we will sing.
