Bio / Background
Marv Machura, described by Penguin Eggs Magazine as a "winning singer and talented guitar player," is one of Alberta's favorite singer-songwriters. As a singer, performer, and guitar player, his roots-music act (either solo or with his band, The Mountain Rangers) is one of the most popular in the province.

Audiences are draw to Machura’s unassuming manner and charm and won over by his clear, expressive vocals and dynamic guitar playing on a range of original and cover tunes.
His two critically acclaimed discs (2003, 2004) have been supported by radio stations across Alberta and have landed significant air and internet radio play in Europe and the USA.
↓ more ↓Although he has published over 20 songs in Nashville, Machura is primarily known as narrative singer-songwriter and guitar-player whose music continues to define the Western Canadian experience.
A veteran of the roots music scene, Machura has been performing for over twenty-five years; with the release of his two latest discs, he shows no sign of slowing down!
He continues to perform, tour, record, and bring music to the people.
