Artist History
This Mp3 site is a collection of original songs I have written over a number of years. Some are solo songs where I played all the instruments and so on, The others are recordings from rehearsal tapes which were remixed and encoded into mp3 format.Each of these songs started off as me just goofin' off with a 4 track and putting guitar & lyrics down and constantly rewriting and refining bits and pieces as I go ,hoping for the best .I learned to play guitar and singing by myself from ,I guess , about the age of twelve or thirteen. I was usually singer /guitarist /songwriter in many of the bands i played in. No body else really wanted to sing in those early days and/or write songs - most people just wanted to play their favourite artists songs - i just always wrote my own songs. So i just took on the job and was always messing around with tunes in my head -walking to school or whatever.. when i was bored .y'know which was just about always he he he he . I played in a few bands here and there of varying levels but I developed my own style and vision and always hung in there with it makin' my own tapes and notes about this 'n' that . I was always drawn to songwriting( and just generally free creative expression period) and was always a resourceful, do-it-all-yrself , independent type of chap so this mp3 thing kinda suits my personality and style all the way I guess. |

Press Reviews
Review/s: 1. "Mark Di Marzio was a fun review. His brand of music is so original that I couldnt decide if it was rock,country,folk or pop... so I just chalked it up to Mark. He plays guitar with such taste ,you dont even realise how intricate his guitar lines are. His songs are so well written it almost feels like he wrote each song at one time ,not from beginning to end but verse ,chorus, prechorus everything at 1 time. His singing style is a bit like Lou Reed,he sings almost like he is speaking. His songs are filled with great lyrical content and the music complements what he is saying. I recommend checking him out if you dig Lou Reed" (Jason Gisser.com-Artist reviews New York) 2."Australian artist Mark Di Marzio serves up fiery bits of Post-Punk pop in the vein of such jangle enthusiasts as U2 and Big Country with sharp, angular guitars, solid beats, and confident vocals. Lyrically, the songs search for the answers to the Big Questions regarding friendships, worldly confines, and redemption." - Kelly B. (Listen.com) |
