Eight Gigs: MRCH

Electro-indie-pop trio MRCH is as about as sleek as its vowelless name suggests, and while there's not much material out yet with which one can form a full impression, the group's debut single “Validation” is pleasingly catchy—like a more chill cousin of the similarly vowel-averse, pro-all-caps CHVRCHES. On top of a solid first single, a slick website, gorgeous press shots and a charming stop-motion music video suggest MRCH is primed to make a move. They don't appear to be playing a ton of shows, so all you aspiring electro-indie music bloggers and I-heard-them-first types, take note of this one. 1050 20th Street, www.mrchmusic.com.
