Backstory Set in 1983, Marco is the second eldest son, born to Italian immigrants in a struggling working-class family in Brooklyn, New York. His father, Marco, ran a small, struggling auto repair shop, while his mother, Maria, worked tirelessly to care for Marco and his siblings. Marco grew up navigating a delicate balance between his older brother Louis and his younger siblings, who often required more attention from their parents. Stuck in the middle, Marco felt both overlooked and burdened. While his brothers Louis and Alessio took on responsibilities in their father’s run-down auto repair shop, Marco struggled to find his place in the family dynamic. As a child, Marco was curious and creative, often dreaming of a life beyond the confines of their working-class Brooklyn neighborhood. Marco found solace in music and art, spending hours sketching, listening to records in their cramped apartment, or on rare occasions having the chance at free lessons in guitar & piano at a program in his public school. Their father often dismissed Marco’s interests as impractical, pressuring him to contribute more to the shop, like his older brother. Marco, who wasn’t interested in working for his father eventually came to an agreement with him, and once he was 16, began working at an Italian restaurant, Frankie’s Kitchen, owned by his uncle. At the restaurant Marco works as a waiter & occasionally is given the opportunity on weekends to perform live music for guest’s.
