"MUDRA emanates sparks, lyric poems, poetry rises incessantly from his melodies. Marco one day, sought for companions who were children of his hope; It became clear that he could not find them unless he created them himself".

"MARCO FRANCO WAS WITH THE PIANO UNTIL THE PIANO ALLOWED HIM TO PLAY IT.
Marco Franco, the pianist, performed for the first time live at the last Rescaldo Festival at Culturgest. And nobody knew very well what to expect. Until then, we only knew Marco Franco, the drummer, who for more than two decades has been building a career that started with hard rock and thrash metal - with “Massive Roar” and “Iberia”, and even participated in 1990 at the RTP Song Festival with “Os Helena” - he turned to funk-traced alternative rock - as the Braindead - drifted through “Peste & Sida”and later migrated to improvised music and jazz and was one of the founders of “Tim Tim por Tim Tum”. In recent years, we have found him playing with the “Mikado Lab”, joining the excellent improvised music quartet “Clocks and Clouds” or jumping aboard the instrumental rock duo Memória de Peixe."
