Aaron Marsh from Copeland

In this episode, we’re joined by Aaron Marsh from the beloved indie/emo band Copeland for a thoughtful and wide-ranging conversation. Aaron reflects on the band’s evolution, from their early days crafting sweeping, emotional records to becoming a mainstay in the scene known for their lush arrangements and deeply personal lyrics. He opens up about the whirlwind years when Copeland played nearly 600 shows in just two years, and how that pace shaped both the band’s identity and his own growth as an artist.

The conversation also takes an unexpected but fascinating turn into the world of Swedish music, with Aaron sharing how Scandinavian artists have influenced his songwriting and production approach. Lastly, we talk about the unique experience of anniversary touring—what it means to revisit old songs, how fans connect to those moments in time, and the balance between nostalgia and evolution.
