Marlon Funaki signed with Warner Records.
Marlon Funaki is managed by Mick Management & booked by CAA.
Marlon Funaki is a 23-year-old Japanese-Mexican American solo artist from Highland, California, who self-writes, produces, mixes, and masters his music, blending alternative rock vocals with jazzy, psychedelic guitar riffs for a genre-fluid sound that captivates global audiences. Starting in middle school jazz band on drums and self-teaching guitar via YouTube, he dropped his first SoundCloud single "Get Out of My Face" at 16, rapidly progressing from small house shows to arena performances like Toyota Arena by late 2024. Highlights include his 2022 debut album Monterey Village, 2025 EP Overdue, singles like "Under Fire" and "Murphy's Law," and accolades such as Luck Reunion's "Artist on the Rise," with tours alongside acts like Palace and Billy Currington drawing energetic, intimate crowds.
