Bio:
I loved music as a child. I took violin lessons for a few years, until my parents divorced when I was thirteen. I then sold my bicycle to buy a guitar, 'cause I wanted to rock. I formed a band and recorded in quite a few studios. We tried for years to get the elusive record deal, had some small-time success, got played on radio and did a single for a little record label. I stopped doing the band thing in 2001, and decided to try recording my own material. The biggest adjustment was, and still is, singing lead vocals. I am basically a guitarist who sings. I Released the album Two Sides in 2002 and immediately was nominated as Top 50 Unsigned Artist for Dick Clark and Coca-Cola's American Music Awards. I have a small Mac-based setup in my house and have just completed a second album, The Universe Is Burning. Visit www.marcsupsic.com for more info and song samples. Thanks!

Music Background
Violin lessons for a few years, starting at age ten. This was a great foundation for understanding melody, harmoy and theory. I stopped taking lessons but continued playing violin in the High School orchestra. A music theory class in 12th grade really helped pull it all together for me.
I bought a guitar and taught myself to play, learning a lot of chords and riffs from friends and local musicians. I was recording ideas for years, on a basic tape recorder (that's all we had back then).
Eventually I joined/formed several bands and made many studio recordings over the years. Along the way I picked up other instruments like the banjo, mandolin, bass, and piano.
I fell in love with recording music and produced a few of the band albums we did. I definitely have carried all of that experience into my own projects, and I continue to to build my writing, scoring and recording skills.
I just started singing on my own albums a few years ago. Of all my skills I have to say this is the one that needs the most work. I'm always learning. In all, I just hope to be able to make some cool CDs and put them out there in hopes of reaching some like-minded people.
