A relentless emcee by age 9, a self taught pianist, multi-instrumentalist, producer and composer by age 14, Heron Demarco, 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 Eminem sporting Hendrix's guitar chops, layered over DJ premier'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 dark, 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. 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.
"Heron Demarco is not what you would expect from a hip hop act.
What surprised me more than his immense vocabulary and rhyme
prose was his ability to make his own beats. Each beat on the cd is
genuine and unique, far more creative than most would expect
from an unsigned artist..."
