The Blue Hour blends dream pop, synth wave, and industrial with hints of psychedelia, folk, and electronica to create haunting songs, focusing on texture and rhythm and beautiful discord ... and most of all magic.
“Delivering a mesmerizing sound that blends the best of Kate Bush and This Mortal Coil... The Blue Hour have inherited the passion and aesthetic of 4AD’s golden years – haunting, deep, and richly melancholic with seamless production” - The Big Takeover
The Blue Hour is a Seattle-based duo that blends elements of ethereal, electronic, and neoclassical music to create a haunting and cinematic dreampop-noir that is reminiscent of classic 4AD artists while retaining a fresh vision that is unique to Marselle and Brian Hodges. Marselle’s ethereal yet soulful vocal delivery often draws comparison to Kate Bush. Meanwhile, Brian’s songwriting and production, which focuses on finding that rare balance between the melancholy and the sublime, is frequently likened to This Mortal Coil and Dead Can Dance.
In addition to writing for the Blue Hour, Marselle and Brian are ASACP credited musicians who write soundtrack and production music for television and film. They operate a one-stop studio, the forested Pixie Nest, and are available for custom work.
