About Me
Chris DeMarco began his career in music as a much sought-after musician and band front man, having shared the stage and played with a virtual who’s who of super-musicians of the ‘70’s and ‘80’s. After deciding to leave behind the glare of the bright lights of Hollywood and the ever-pulsing New York music scene, DeMarco settled into the cadence of more laid back climes that now finds him at his most serene self. His latest release Lost and Found - his first on his self-distributed label Dreamco Music, shows him to be in fine musical form as he treats us to a volume of classic fare meant to please the true Rock aficionados among us.

Lost and Found is an aptly named album that weaves together DeMarco’s past and present musical contributions into one cohesive work, featuring Dick Wagner (Alice Cooper Band), Tommy Talton (Gregg Allman Band and Cowboy), Ken Mazur (Robert Palmer Band), and Barry Richman (Lynard Skynard) on Guitar; Billy Langley, keyboards; Rhys Clark (Billy Joel Band and Freddy Fender Band) playing drums; and Jim Fielder (Buffalo Springfield, Blood Sweat and Tears and Neil Sedaka) on Bass. Billy Joel and Michael Monarch (Steppenwolf) appear on the bonus track Sail Away.

Chris DeMarco, whose experience in the entertainment industry spans over four decades, has also given his musical influence to documentaries, television and radio commercials as well as two film scores. Troma's War released in 1988 by Troma Entertainment featured music composed and produced by DeMarco, including the title track "Alive". (Chris also played a terrorist in a short scene!) Toxic Avenger III - The Last Temptation of Toxie was released in 1989 (also by Troma Entertainment) and boasted music composed and produced by Chris DeMarco based on music by Antonin Dvorak.

Selections from Chris DeMarco’s Lost and Found are currently being featured on the show KHZ Radio with Carolyn Fox that is heard in Los Angeles, Washington DC, Baltimore and Ocean City, MD. Songs from the CD have also been played on Radio ARIA (France) as well as on multiple podcasts in the U.S. and Europe.

Currently residing in the Atlanta, Georgia area, Chris DeMarco has proven his mettle as a legitimate artist time and time again. From his glory days as a front man for the Island Records recording act Riff Raff, which he formed in 1977, to his contributions to the work of the legendary cadre of musicians he also calls friends, Chris DeMarco’s music and artistry has stood the test of time. Still in his musical prime, and uncompromising in his commitment to making excellent music, he is without a doubt the stuff legends are made of.

You can find Chris DeMarco’s Lost and Found on iTunes and Napster, among other sites, and the physical CD on can be purchased through CD Baby or Chris's official website.

Never too late for friends

Last year when I went to California to play in a celebrity /charity golf tournament in Malibu, I met a guy who was in the golf business and grew up in Southern California. He had just moved to Atlanta so we hooked up afterwards and started playing golf together. On one occasion he mentioned that he had a musician buddy that he played golf with in California - Scott Thurston. I couldn't believe it ! Scott Thurston played on my first big time recordings at Capital Records and United Artists in the… Continue

We lived in Brooklyn first then onto the burbs in NJ then Cliffside Pk/Ft. Lee NJ-then Greenwich Village-10th and 5th Ave. Very spoiled with that apartment!

What about you? Why leave NY for ATL?
