I make alt pop as Marin Vale, full of atmosphere, signal, and big feelings. I’m building a whole world here and you’re invited in.

Same system. Different century.
1926 coming soon.

My album The Light Won’t Wait is out now.

I think of albums as systems, not collections. You enter them and move through.

New album drops soon; it’s about now and it’s about 100 years ago. Electricity, Econ, and Emotion…

NCAR’s Vin Lally (1922-2005, under the balloon) was a pioneer in the field of atmospheric measurements, and a generous mentor to me when I was a green NOAA lad learning about dropwindsondes. Few were more important to my career development than Vin. Thank you, Vin, and thank you NCAR.

A lot of what we’re living through now has already happened once — just without the interfaces.

I’m making an album about that.
1926.

The Sun eclipsed by Earth as seen by the returning Apollo 12 crew. This colorization of a B&W photo suggests how a composite made from different exposures might have appeared if they hadn't run out of color Hasselblad film. Hopefully one day this sight will be captured with capable color cameras.

The Light Won’t Wait cassette is real.
Fifty tapes, blue shell, black silhouette, limited edition.

I wanted a small physical piece of this world — something you can hold, rewind, and play straight through the way the story was meant to unfold.

They’re live on Bandcamp now.

Cassettes are AVAILABLE!!! Limited edition of 50. They sound so warm and shimmery. Can’t wait to see where these little beams of light land…

hi — I’m Marin Vale.
I write alt-pop that leans atmospheric and emotional.
my debut album The Light Won’t Wait just came out — and it’s the start of a trilogy.
