Happy Holidays all...
I hope this update finds you all in a warm and peaceful place.
The past few weeks I’ve had the auspicious honor of working with Holiday Express. If you are not familiar, they are an amazing non-profit organization, championed by New Jersey's own Tim McCloone.
In these challenging times in our world and our country's history, more and more people are going without.
Holiday Express is a beacon of light that filters through some of the darkness and I feel that they make a profound difference in so many peoples lives. It was one of the most enriching experiences of my life.
Check them out on the web www.holidayexpress.org
With all the economic woes, civil unrest and extreme weather conditions in the US and abroad, It goes without saying that 2011 has been an incredibly challenging and profound year for us all.
All these experiences have given me much to reflect upon and write about. As a result, I am very much looking forward to getting into the studio this week to embark on a brand new CD. I will keep you all posted on it's progress.
Wishing all my wonderful friends and fans a happy, healthy and prosperous 2012
With Love
Marc

Never Say Never
In 1992 I wrote a song called "How much longer is forever" with Freddie Curci and Steve Demarchi from the band Alias(Formerly known as Sheriff).
Their first #1 U.S. hit "When I'm With You" was in 1987.
Their second hit was in 1990 "More than Words" as Alias.
They went into the studio with producer John Jansen to record their second album in 1992 for EMI records.
If you recall that was the same year that The Seattle Grunge Sound took the industry by storm and Alias's fully produced album was shelved and never released. (I'm sure many other bands suffered this fate as well.)
A couple of weeks ago my manager Barry Bergman got a call from EMI that they are now releasing the Alias CD. 17 years later.
Crazy ass business that we're in. I just got a copy of the CD appropriately named Never Say Never and I must say (taking into consideration that it's 17 years old) it sounds great.
