Eleven-Ten is A folk-rock-ish-mostly-acoustic act from north-west New Jersey.
Fronted by Mari Hubley, (a.k.a.Maribyrd) a singer/songwriter from Denville, NJ,
Maribyrd was the 1st 'oficial band name.' The four original members are Mari,
Joe Mollitor, Ryan Headley, and Scott Brown. Mari and Joe have been playing and
writing music together since high-school in the early 90's. Ryan met Mari during
open mic night at The Lockwood Tavern one fateful evening in 2000...it was love
at 1st note;) Last to join the "core" of the band was Scott Brown, a former bandmate
and long-time friend of Ryan's, tying everything together with his funky percussion.
Over the years the line-up of the band has varied, and continues
to do so from show to show, making each performance one of a kind.

Mari's voice has been compared to singers Sarah MacLaughlin, Joni Mitchell,
and Eva Cassidy. Her writing influences include Edie Brickell & The New Bohemians,
Paul Simon, Indigo Girls, Beatles, Led Zep, Sarah McLaughlin, Tori Amos, STP, The Dead,
John Denver, Pearl Jam, The Cure, Joni Mitchell, Black Crowes, Alice in chains, Elliot Smith,
JT, Carol King, Nickel Creek, The Radio Galaxy, Joe McKee, to name a few.

Joe's Basement...Maribyrd's debut album, was recorded in 2 barns, a gunshack,
and a doctor's office. It is available by e-mailing Mari@eleven-ten.com, by stopping by
The Acoustic Cafe in Rockaway, NJ, or of course by coming to a show!!
The 14 song album is chock full of some of the greatest talent in North Jersey, recorded by Alan
"Jax" Bowers who also played the drumkit, fiddle by Timmy Carbone-courtesy of Sugar Hill Records,
Chris Farrelley, Pete Marceau of Hero Pattern, Ronnie Grana of Straight Dope Cherry,
all 3 of Maribyrd's sisters singing harmonies and of course Uncle Bob from Seattle on the keyboard.

A new EP should be available by the end of the year.
