PRESENTS:
Mario Mena was born in San Mateo, California and was exposed to music
very early. With his father’s side of the family been involved in many parts of
the music industry Mario was practically raised up to sing and perform.
But his talent had been hidden from the world until his junior year of high
school when he made his first performance in his high school musical.
Playing Adam Pontipee in Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, Mario’s talents
were quickly admired and displayed.
With multiple choir solos and returning to the stage his next year in the
Beauty and the Beast as the humorous Cogsworth it was evident he had a
persona on stage.
Whether it was acting or singing Mario had a love for the stage and would
continue to work his way higher in the industry. Though he loved acting his
passion was music, writing multiple songs as well as covers of other songs he
worked on improving his range ad finding his style.
Besides his vocals Mario also knows how to play the piano and drums.
He started a band with his best friend Donnie Bacchi but didn’t go very
far seeing the passion for music was not equally shared and couldn’t get
together a lot.
He took a step down from the stage to take classes for voice at Sierra
College and improve his vocal skills. Mario wants to use his voice and music
to inspire people and give people a genuine song of emotions which he
feels this day in age lacks. He wants all his songs to mean something an
effect people in positive ways.
BIO:
I am a singer/songwriter with style, unique, and creative skills in songwriting and I am also a hardworking, dedicated, emotional, and inspired guy who loves creative work and making people smile. I aim to use my music to inspire change in people and give people a voice if they don’t have one.

No more will you hold meNo more will you control my destinyNow it’s my turn to use my voice and I won’t use it like you did
You turn around and say thisYou make a lie right behind meWhy don’t you just mind your businessI’m sick and tired of it

You turn around and say thisYou make a lie right behind meWhy don’t you just mind your businessI’m sick and tired of it
On my way to New York City Love love please don’t cryKnow I’ve gone out searching for a place we can call our own
Baby please don’t get distressedI swear that I’ ll be back soonI need some time to find a place we can have our honeymoon
Shelter shelter someplace to keep me warmClean clothes, a bed, and locked door oh ohThey say home is where the heart isBut I can’t quiet remember where I left it
Just look at what a mess you left meSo I wander far and wideTrying to pick up the pieces that youleft behind
Shelter shelter someplace to keep me warmSome clean clothes, bed, and locked door whoa oh oh ohThey say home is where the heart isBut I can’t quiet remember where I left it
Hope that I deserve itPray I don’t screw up‘cause this heart has been left scarredAnd I’m wishing for better luck
Shelter shelter someplace to keep me warmClean clothes, a bed, and locked door oh ohThey say home is where the heart isBut I can’t quiet remember where I left it
This isn’t the way it has to beCause without you There’s no home for me=
