Early years, The Weird and Wonderful Marmozets (2007–2016)

[edit source]

The two sets of siblings formed the band while at school and have been playing live since 2007, gathering widespread acclaim for their chaotic live shows despite an average age of just 15.[2] The band were originally called The Marmozets, and under this name they released one EP titled Out of My Control in 2009.[4] They soon after altered their name to just Marmozets.

They have shared stages with the likes of Young Guns, Funeral For a Friend, Gallows, Hyro Da Hero, The Used, Four Year Strong and Muse and have appeared at Glastonbury Festival, Download Festival, Reading and Leeds, Rock Werchter, Slam Dunk Festival, 2000trees and Y Not Festival.[2][5]

They released their EP, Passive Aggressive in 2011 and followed that with Vexed in 2012.[6] Gallows' record label Venn Records released Marmozets' first single "Good Days" in 2012.[7] In 2013 the band self-released their second single, "Born Young and Free", before the band signed to Roadrunner Records and released "Move Shake Hide".[6] Both singles received high praise from BBC Radio 1 DJs Zane Lowe, Daniel P Carter and Huw Stephens. The band released the single "Why Do You Hate Me?" on 17 March 2014.[8]

The band was nominated for Best British Newcomer at the 2013 Kerrang! Awards and were voted Best New UK Band by Big Cheese magazine.[9][10] Along with the singles released in the run up to the album, the band had also performed a few other unreleased tracks live that would feature on their debut album, including "Is It Horrible", "Cover Up" and "Hit the Wave". Marmozets embarked on their first headline UK tour in September 2013.[11]

They released their debut album The Weird and Wonderful Marmozets on 29 September 2014. It received critical acclaim, later winning the 2015 Kerrang! Award for Best Album.

In March 2015, it was announced that Marmozets would be supporting Muse on their 2015 UK Psycho Tour.[12]

Knowing What You Know Now and hiatus (2017–2024)

[edit source]

Work on the band's second album was delayed when Becca McIntyre was hospitalised after being diagnosed with hypermobility syndrome. McIntyre had to endure several operations and months of recovery before returning to the band.[13]

In January 2017, Sam Macintyre announced via Twitter that the band had completed their second album.[14] The first single from the album, "Play", was released in August 2017 and reached the top of the Kerrang! Rock Chart.[15] The song was also used as one of the official themes of the NXT Takeover special, NXT TakeOver: WarGames.

On 10 October 2017, the band released a second single from the album, "Habits", which debuted on BBC Radio 1 prior to its official digital release. The band also announced details of their new album, titled Knowing What You Know Now, and made it available to pre-order. On 11 December 2017, the band released the third single from their new album, "Major System Error".[3][16] The album was released on 26 January 2018.

Following the end of the touring cycle for Knowing What You Know Now, the band entered a hiatus. In 2019, bandmates Becca Macintyre and Jack Bottomley welcomed their first child, and announced their marriage in June 2022.[17][18]

On 5 November 2025, the band released "A Kiss from a Mother" – the first single from their third album – and announced their first live shows since 2018, which began in December.[20] They also confirmed that bassist Will Bottomley had amicably left the band to pursue other musical endeavours.[21] Two more singles, "You Want the Truth" and "New York", followed before the band announced that their third album – Co.War.Dice. – which was released on 22 May 2026.
