Marc Fain's journey with music began very early as a child, from listening to Beatles records his parents had given him, to being surrounded by his father's love of jazz. Music was ingrained in him from the very beginning.
Starting off with guitar at age 15, he then switched to the bass, and became infatuated with the hard rock music of such great bands as Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, AC/DC, Black Sabbath, Guns & Roses, Van Halen, & much more. Marc started cutting his musical teeth around with various bands such as Chain of Rocks, Lanas’ X, Gun Metal Grey, 8 Years, Flannel, Radio Thief, Noisy Boyz, One Rose Rebellion, Axeticy, Retrospect, and Trial and Error in different venues all around the St. Louis, Mo. and surrounding areas, playing & recording since 1997.
Marc released his first solo instrumental album “Dancing With Dragons” in 2009, which displayed not only his love of straight ahead rock music, but also explored other genres like jazz and world music. In April of 2018 Marc released his second solo album entitled “Finding My Way”, which found him continuing to push his musical boundaries while maintaining his rock roots.
Marc is currently performing with local St. Louis act Trial & Error and continues to record his solo instrumental music as well and has also been working on a novel with the working title Love, Loss, and Hope centered around his fascination with all things Celtic plus influences from such books and movies as Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones and the like. Marc is also available for other touring & recording opportunities and can be reached directly through his e-mail at marcnfain@gmail.com
