Partnership Made In Heaven

Jason Warner and deMarco DeCiccio are the members of the pop music duo Jason & deMarco. They are partners not only in making music of a mostly inspirational/spiritual nature, but also in life, as sweethearts. America seems to have a problem with the concept of a gay loving couple who also have a spiritual side but this hasn’t stopped the guys from promoting both aspects of their lives they feel are important.

Their first single “Trying to Get to You” climbed the Billboard Charts and their second single, “This is Love” won “Music Video of the Year 2006” on MTV’s LOGO. More recently this good-looking couple have been featured in a film documentary called ‘We Are All Angels’ that has been received well at several major gay film festivals.

In 2004, Jason and deMarco appeared on the cover of The Advocate magazine with their new album Spirit Pop, a 12-track album of original compositions, combining pop and inspirational genres and yielded both critical and popular acclaim. “The Advocate cover introduced us to people outside of the community of faith. It was very exciting and I definitely think it introduced us to many new people” says Jason. “The irony, however, was that we were launching our mainstream pop career while The Advocate focused on the gay Christian aspect of who we are, and so many people assumed that our music was gay and Christian. We became the poster boys for the gay Christian community.

“We’ve had to work at clarifying that although we are both gay and men of faith, our music is not religious, nor is it gay,” continues Jason. “Our music has a message, and if I had to call it anything, it would be “uplifting.” 

At the moment there are no plans for the guys to appear here in the UK… but if you’d like a taste of their very accessible music… log on to www.jasonanddemarco.com.
