Marco Capelli Frucht
Folk • Groton, CT
Known for soundtrack music in Duke Nukem 3D and Sonic the Hedgehog Sonic's Schoolhouse...
KONETIUK - Nominated songwriter, guitarist and producer Marco has played 42 states and two Provinces including AZ, Colo., NM, Ont., the Carolinas, Dakotas & of course closer to home.
This hunter/gatherer likes classical & folk mostly, but also digs on "funk, punk, & metal and stuff." Used to play bass in a 3-piece Christian Metal band called Peace On Earth (POE) and shredded lead guitar in the really hot 80's highschool one-hit-wonder hair-band Majestic so the occasional weird influence you'll hear is probably just loose eardrums.
"If you think the music you hear here is eclectic, you should hear what I do when I'm playing out in the streets!" he once told someone in a mezzanine where he was playing classical guitar before nine showings of Phantom Of The Opera's Bus & Truck group. What he didn't know at the time was he was telling this to Sarah Brightman's Broadway understudy. She went on to lead both Broadway and touring productions.
Marco currently plays full time in the summer at an amusement park, and hibernates every fall, winter and spring.
