Paisley Park Recording Artist
Member of the BAD BOYS OF PAISLEY PARK group MAZARATI

Captivating professional entertainer, praised by fellow artists for his versatility in a musical genre which he demonstrates in live and studio performances. 

He is sought after by producers for his vocal talents and keen ear in the studio, while his commanding acting ability is sure to steal any scene. 

These skills combined with his musical writing talents make Marvin a solid choice for any entertainment endeavor. 

Born to a well known Milwaukee musician and a passionate educator, entertaining was in the house and in the blood! Marvin’s professional career began as a drummer at the age of 12 with local groups and stage performances. 

The move to Minneapolis in the early 80’s, is where his career soared with the group MAZARATI. MAZARATI produced the opportunity to perfect his keyboard skills and showmanship. 

Following several years of performing throughout the United States, MAZARATI was soon signed to Paisley Park/Warner Brothers Records, and the release of their first single (100M.P.H) was on the charts. 

As the original lead vocalist, Marvin demonstrated his studio savvy by collaborating on what was to become Prince’s #1 hit single “Kiss”. 

Subsequent to the release of their album, soon to follow were tours, concerts, and studio recordings with the likes of: Sheila E, New Addition, Prince, Alexander O’Neil, Jermaine Jackson, Jesse Johnson and much, much more.

In the mid 90’s, it was his great fortune to meet talented producer Oliver Leiber. Marvin was able to demonstrate his studio savoir-faire while performing the song “Obsessed” on the movie sound track “Bright Lights Big City”. 

This work was soon surpassed by his vocal performance as co-lead vocalist (aka: MC Skat Kat) with Paula Abdul on her #1 hit single “Opposites Attract”. Marvin’s co-lead and background vocals with Paula helped produce interest in Marvin’s group the Wild Pair, from several record labels. Eventually, the Wild Pair was signed to Capitol Records. 

In 2016 the new cd was released, titled “Over & Under the Wire”. This cd is an eclectic blend of genres including R&B, Funk, Rock, Pop and Neo Soul. A blend of love, party and dance music that’s sure to wake up the soul.
