Marcus is a one of a kind talent who has quickly become one of the fastest rising young comedians around! His high energy, rock n’ roll based comedy captured the attention of millions of Americans when he was featured on the 2008 season of NBC’s hit television series, "LAST COMIC STANDING", where his unique style helped him stand out and propelled him all the way to second place!!!
Marcus began his comedy career in radio, voicing hundreds of radio commercials and putting in thousands of hours of live radio doing celebrity impressions for stations all over the country before making the move to the comedy stage. He quickly gained a following with his live shows that combined his talent for voices, his razor sharp wit and unique writing into a show that kept audiences asking for more and has now gained him a dedicated and diverse international fan base.
In September of 2008, Marcus recorded a brand new comedy special titled "SECOND TO NONE" which perfectly captured the energy and excitement of his amazing live show. The DVD features the complete 2 hour comedy performance as well as over an hour of special features and behind the scenes footage. You can order "SECOND TO NONE" on DVD now!!!

baby....i just wanted to tell you that i love you...oh and also...if you have a second, could you stop by my band's page and give them a listen...we are really trying to make it big and i just thought with your input, you could help us out...thanks!!!!!
Hey Marcus, Plan a trip to L.A. Dec. 13th thru 15th. I Just got a recurring on I'm in the Band on DisneyXD You should come hang out for the Taping and Meet the Disney Execs...Hint,Hint
This place IS clearing out faster than Detroit. It's weird. I still think myspace is better designed to manage video clips and gig info, but we gotta use what the people use
I came home from school today and my Mom handed me the DVD I bought her at your show Friday and she said "This doesn't work. It says unable to read" I told her I'd go try it in my player. She again says "I tried in my computer and in the car. No jokes, no sound, no nothing." Apparently my poor 50 year old mother thought the DVD was a CD. I set her straight but I just had to share.
Hey Bud Just stoppin in to say what up? I'm setting up a Showcase in Nashville in November, and then Looking at this theater in Phx for Dec. Maybe! Hope all is well with you... and I'll work on that song idea.
Marcus, you're the funniest MF'er on Myspace! Check out our music player and give us some feedback if you got some non funny downtime. Peace - 40ozMidget
