Marcin

A classically-trained, rock-influenced Polish guitarist, Marcin Patrzałek was born in Kielce on October 6, 2000. Before making a name for himself under the first name that became his stage name, he learned classical guitar at the age of ten and studied flamenco technique to create his percussive finger-picking style. Winner of Poland's Must Be the Talent in 2015, he experimented with electronic sounds in his studio, which he combined with his guitar playing on the album Hush (2016), split between original pieces and covers such as "Asturias", based on Rodrigo's Aranjuez Concerto. In the same year, Marcin reaches the final of the International Fingerstyle Competition Guitar Masters and wins the Joaquin Rodrigo International Guitar Competition. He records several separate titles, including rock covers such as "Kashmir" and adaptations of Paganini and Chopin. In 2018, the guitarist won another talent contest broadcast on Italian television, Tu Si Que Vales, then released the ReVamp EP, covering previously released pieces. In 2019, he appears on America's Got Talent, where he reaches the semi-finals. Signed by Sony Classical, he records the album Dragon in Harmony (2024), featuring Tim Henson, Portugal.
