I'm Madelyne Marquise (pronounced Mad-el-in Mar-keez) and I sing and play guitar for this wonderful band. I grew up in Wrigleyville in Chicago, then moved to the Portage-Cragin area where I currently live. I was a very bitter little girl and didn't much like anything, and this was almost 100% to blame on my Lutheran school education. I turned to music to let out my agonies and I started playing the recorder as my first musical instrument in 4th grade, then trumpet, then piano.
But then in 7th grade, I saw my first concert, which was the Foo Fighters. I thought, "I could do that!" So I taught myself guitar, bass, drums, and also took some singing lessons. This brightened my life up a bit and I became pleasant, confident, and more friendly to people. I tried taking guitar lessons after a few months of playing the guitar, but learning Mary Had A Little Lamb on guitar is quite tedious, especially after you've already learned how to play a plethora of more interesting songs, so I quit them after about two months.
I tried to start a band ever since Freshman year of high school but everything always fell through. Then I met Bosie. Bosie and I met through a friend, talked online one day, and hit it off perfectly. I went to her house and hung out for awhile, and a few weeks later, we found Justin (the DarkStar) and were writing songs.
I still play piano and recorder but not the trumpet anymore (although I'm thinking of taking it up again), and I want to learn the cello.
