Bio
A relentless emcee by age 9, a self taught pianist, multi-instrumentalist, producer and composer by age 14, Heron De Marco, has been stunning audiences with his brash and poignant lyrics, as well his penchant for composing lush and memorable melodies that blur the lines of musical genres. Hailing from the grimy underbelly of Far Rockaway Queens some say Heron sounds like Nas, and Emimem sporting Hendrix’s guitar chops, layered over Dr Dre’s Boom Bap. No stranger to performing he has dropped sonic napalm on the stage of many open mic clubs within the New York area. As a lyricist he is abrasive, witty, humorous, and introspective. As a producer and composer he’s upbeat, jazzy, bluesy, and experimental. Heron has never allowed himself to be confined to any conservative ideas and enjoys pushing the boundaries of hip hop, rock, metal, and jazz to forge his own sonic gumbo sprinkled with out of the box thought and energy. Fans of Heron love all of his underground classics such as the hilarious “Hate Song” the inspirational “Fire Flies” and the club bangin’ “Way Down”.With his new album Mutiny on the horizon he plans to make his mark on the industry by way of burning down the backdoor with his verbal blowtorch. You’ve been warned.
