Maritime

Maritime formed in 2003 out of the ashes of The Promise Ring and The Dismemberment Plan. Davey von Bohlen and Dan Didier called their friend Eric Axelson and formed the band In English. After they changed the name into Maritime they became very successful with their records. The second album We, the Vehicles is a pretty rad record with great songs (only!). Later Justin Klug and Dan Hinz joined the group. Singer and guitarist Davey von Bohlen with his emotional voice has a huge influence on the indie rock sound of the band.

  • 2004: Glass Floor (DeSoto/GHVC)
  • 2006: We, the Vehicles (Flameshovel/GHVC)
  • 2007: Heresy and the Hotel Choir (Flameshovel/GHVC)
