MarcRocs Solo
Marc can be or has been called a Solo Act, One-Man-Band, Troubadour (in Europe), Busker (street performer), Entertainer, guitar player, singer and "Guitaraoke". He receives comments like "I thought that was someone covering that song on the radio/Jukebox", "I thought that was a whole band" & "How do you do that?"



srv1Sounding impressive is only one part of a live music show for a cover/blue collar musician. Meeting or exceeding his buyers/audiences expectations is Marc’s goal. This includes formatting any or all of a performance for cocktail hour, dinner music, sing-a-long, dancing to rock'n it out. That is with the correct amount of jokes, gimmicks and fun.

An experienced "front man" and MC, Marc has enough "tricks" to be-friend almost any audience, playing with "on the spot" comedy.Marc uses a wireless guitar and head worn vocal mic rig in order to stroll and interact with his audiences. Marc is a university schooled guitar player and a trained vocalist.

Sometimes Marc will perform with just an acoustic guitar. More of the time Marc uses custom made backing trax and big black box (2 racks of audio gear) all controlled via a laptop computer, which makes Marc sound like a live band recording. Sound is carried by 600 watts of speakers or depending on the gig a 2,000 watt (boom, boom) speaker system.

Please take the time to review Marc’s songlist and other pages on this site detailing with video specialty formats. Marc's true specialty is the ability to deliver detailed renditions of wide variety of popular music.
