Gentle Temper

ABOUT THE GENTLE TEMPER

With their ever-expanding instrumentation and dynamically rich live performance, Ryan Meier and Marion Earley make up Gentle Temper, the Indie Folk duo from Boston. Formed in 2016, Meier and Earley found their footing deeply rooted in the vast realm of Folk and have molded their own unique sound by constantly pushing the boundaries of what a duo is capable of. They draw inspiration from their surroundings, bringing forth music and lyrics that are steeped in observances of travel, mental health, politics, and love.

Just three days shy of the anniversary of the release of their debut album, “Our Warm Red Light”, Gentle Temper released their latest single, "Triple Dog Dare". “Triple Dog Dare” began as a poem describing a moment of contemplation and observation of Earley's own life and of the world around her. The poem has since morphed into a song that is, at its core, an individual's personal call to action; a reminder that we do have control over our circumstances, and that we hold the power to change them as we see fit.
