HiddenTrack #274 ACTOR OBSERVER (Greg Marquis)

Since the release of their debut full length in 2015, ACTOR OBSERVER from Boston, MA have become a well-respected musical force throughout New England. Their dynamic sound and electric live performance are charged with a visceral sincerity and vulnerability that audience members find refreshing in the current age of post-hardcore. On 2022’s ‘Songs For The Newly Reclusive’ the quintet explored a broad range of emotional and musical depth, confronting topics of gentrification, toxic masculinity, generational trauma, and isolation amidst a clamoring world in distress. The resulting sound was their most focused and impactful album yet, garnering them a spot on the 2023 Boston Calling Music Festival (alongside legacy acts such as Foo Fighters, Paramore and Queens of the Stone Age) and a tour with metalcore heavyweights He Is Legend. After kicking off 2025 opening for The Used at House of Blues in Boston, AO signed with Dynamic Talent International for booking. Since then they have toured all over the eastern half of the US, northeast Canada with Kaonashi, and released two new singles, with a third on the way. Thanks for listening!!!
