Composing and Songwriting husband-and-wife team TRACEY J. MARINO and VANCE K. MARINO met at the iconic Belly Up Tavern in San Diego after their friends stood them up at a concert. They've been writing music together ever since.
As Songwriters, Tracey and Vance write and produce music & lyrics, particularly in upbeat, positive Indie Folk Pop, Indie Folk Rock and Singer-Songwriter styles. They work extensively with vetted award-winning, up-and-coming independent Artists and Producers.
As Instrumental cue composers, they specialize in Hybrid cues with Contemporary Beats: Tension, Urban Dramedy, EDM, Hip Hop, Rock, Emotional Drama, World Music, Beach, Island, Reggae, and Upbeat, Happy Quirky cues. They've also had success with their Circus & Carnival, Solo Acoustic Guitar, Ukulele, and Piano cues, and their Original and PD Christmas & Holiday music.
With nearly 3,000 songs and instrumental cues in their BMI catalog, The Marino's receive accolades for their interesting arrangements, catchy themes, quality musicianship, playing real instruments, crafted lyrics, and their ability to provide a quick turnaround in the fast-paced music world. They've had thousands of placements in TV, film, trailers, promos, advertising, video games, and other media.
Tracey & Vance have music signed with international publishers BMG, Anthem Entertainment (formerly Ole Publishing), Sonoton Music (distributed by APM Music of Universal / Sony), and Megatrax, as well as with several exclusive boutique publishers and music licensing companies such as Black Toast, and Imaginary Friends Music Partners.
