bio:
Marc was born in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, in May 1979. He grew up in Weymouth, Dorset. His passion for music started at the age of sixteen when his mother bought him his first guitar. He finally moved to London in 2001 to further his music career.
His main music influences are The Beatles, John Lennon, Paul Weller, The Verve and Richard Ashcroft. His musical strengths are well structured, original, finely crafted melancholic songs. He is a good live guitarist with excellent stage presence.
Marc started his music career in London, as a solo artist, playing a number of low key acoustic gigs in the Camden area of north London.
After more writing and recording, Marc decided that his live performances required more 'bite' and he enlisted the services of his friend, Charles Roncoli, to be his drummer. They have subsequently played a number of London venues in the last three years including, 12 Bar, Archway Tavern, Blag Club, The Boston Arms, Bull and Gate, Bullet Bar, Cobden Club, Dublin Castle, Hope and Anchor, Leonards, Metro Club, The Rock Garden and The Water Rat's Theatre.
Marc was also due to play the 2009 Guilfest, but due to financial difficulties, one of the stage sponsors was forced to pull out and his appearance was cancelled. Marc also played at the 2009 Surface Unsigned Festival.
Marc has carefully constructed and continually updated his myspace site over the last three years or so and his profile views are now in excess of 19,000 and music plays on the site are currently in excess of 14,000. Marc has also recently constructed a site on facebook.
Marc is currently on the roster of Deuce Management and Promotion Services. He worked with Caravan Music Promotions in 2008 and subsequently his music was aired on many local radio stations both in the UK and the USA, receiving alot of positive feedback. His track 'My Soul' was played on Tom Robinson's BBC6 Music Introducing show and this play alone attracted interest from Vision Promotions who wanted to promote the song. Marc is now working with Smoky Carrot Records, again, trying to increase his exposure.
