Sounds Like Playing guitar since age 14...
...writing songs even longer.
First album, unsigned, unpublished, and unpromoted was titled "Hootenany Green." Copyrighted 1989 as a demo on digital audio tape (DAT) and cassette only. Sold 50 copies on first printing and 150 on the second. Contains 8 songs and a commercial.
The demo also includes "Hey Mon," which was co-written in 1988 with Carl Franklin. The music from it can be heard on any computer that has a soundblaster built in. Or look for it in search engines as reggae.mid Marco has 900+ original songs, but he's only happy with 300 or so.

Writes whenever he's awake and completes the math while he's asleep and dreaming.
Marco is a Pisces, loves long walks in the park, the color purple, poetry and everything besides Proctor&Gamble products - IE: Pringles, Puffs, Olean, Pantene, Prell and Pepto-Bismo.
"Oh wait, did I leave out Puritan Oil, Jif, Tide and Pert?"

  • He's performed in Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Texas, Kansas, Wisconsin, Indiana, Iowa, Ohio, Illinois, Massachusetts, North and South Dakota, Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Oregon, Tennessee, Wyoming, Washington, Washington, DC and of course NYC, Connecticut and Rhode Island closer to where he comes from.
    Marco likes classical and folk mostly, but he also likes punk, pop and parody music. He used to play bass in a three-piece Christian Heavy Metal band called "POE," (Peace On Earth) so if you hear a weird influence now and then it's probably just loose eardrums.

    "If you think the music you're hearing here is eclectic, you should hear what I do when I'm playing out in the streets!" he once told someone in the mezzanine to a theatre where he was playing classical guitar before nine showings of Phantom Of The Opera's bus- and-truck group. He didn't know it at the time but the woman he was telling this to was Sarah Brightman's Broadway understudy. She went on to lead both on Broadway and in the touring companies. Marco currently plays every day in the summer at an amusement park, and hibernates in the fall, winter and spring.

    My Thanksgiving for my friends(Family)

    For those of you who celebrate Thanksgiving

    I offer many Blessings This Day.

    For those, like me who remember This Day of Mourning

    I send many blessings your way.

    For those who celebrate the Harvest this evening

    I offer many blessings to you

    For those who don't celebrate this day at all

    I still send many blessings to you too.

    For I am Thankfful for all of you

    No matter the color or religion.

    Becasue I myself celebrate your life

    And all the friendship to me you have given.

    So wherever you are on this day or night

    Know this one thing I do.

    I will always Love you & be Blessed for you in my life

    And be Thankful that you Love me too.

    I as a Native American know what Happened

    And I am sorry but I must remember this day of sadness.

    But I hold no grudges it's just who I am

    And I still wish you Peace, Love and Many Blessings.

    My life would be just empty and dull

    If it wasn't for each one of your Love.

    So I pray this night that The Great Spirit

    take you into his heart & Bless you from the Sky up above.

    May you have a Great Holiday my friends.

    May your family prosper and flurish always.

    May the Eagle always watch over you.

    May the wolf always protect you.

    May the Bear always bring you great strength.

    And May Creator always keep your spirit filled with Love & Warmth.

    Hi Marco!!
    How's it been going. Still ups and downs on my end. Still working on working on a demo. Yes I meant to write "working on" TWICE! ha ha. I have had a few exciting breakthroughs as far as personal growth is concerned. I guess that's what matters most ......continuing to grow through ALL OF IT! How 'bout yourself? Been there and done that? I wish more than anything that I could get to the NAMMYS but isn't looking good for next spring unless I can release a single. Well, sorry this turned into an email but I sincerely hope everything is going peachy for you!!!

    Thanks for listening to my songs and for the feedback!

    You sure can play that guitar pretty. But you still know how to write some stinging political lyrics... Well done! Best of luck to you!
