Cool Peep of the Week: Jaake Margo In The House

Who is this "Cool Peep"?

Jaake Margo, lead singer of California based rock and roll band, Get Married...

Somewhere beyond the prying eyes of the city, out by the roadside chapel, there's an intersection where parallel roads overlap. Lovers and loners. Elvis and Ozma. AlkalineIn 2016 the band released the Into the Cosmos 7" on Wiretap Records, a four song EP that celebrates everything about having, holding, longing, and losing. Since then, they've fine-tuned what heartstrings they have left for their first full-length. Released in August by both Wiretap and Asian Man Records, Songs For The Sleepless finds the band doubling down on every bet they've made, going for broke in a night race to destiny. For Get Married there's no fading out. You either make it to the other side, or you crash and burn. And if you're out there now, by the roadside chapel, take a chance. Step into the crossroads, close your eyes, and listen. If you do, you just might hear them as they tear by into the night.
Trio and Iron Maiden. Here, they all cross paths. Legend says that if you stand at the center, close your eyes, give yourself up to fate and take what comes, then you will hear two words echo through your head. Get Married. Get Married are eternal optimists. Teens of nowhere who lie dreaming in leather jackets.
Awake in a bedroom, they listen to the rain and sing ballads of the night you met.
