Marc Scibilia, sometimes styled as MARC SCiBiLiA, is an American singer-songwriter based in East Nashville, Tennessee. He was born and raised in Buffalo, NY. His self-titled EP released in 2012 included the song “How Bad We Need Each Other” which was featured in the hit television series Bones, after which the song climbed to the #1 spot on the iTunes Singer/Songwriter chart. Another single, “Something Good in This World”, was also featured on Bones early in 2013.

Scibilia’s version of Woody Guthrie’s folk classic “This Land Is Your Land” was featured in Jeep’s 2015 “Beautiful Lands” Super Bowl commercial. The ad fared well, making Scibilia one of the most Shazam-ed artists of the telecast[1] and led to mentions in articles from Billboard (magazine), Rolling Stone Country, USA Today, the Hollywood Reporter, Just Jared, the Tennessean and the Detroit News.

His new album "Out Of Style" was released on October 30, 2015 amidst tours with James Bay, Zac Brown Band and ZZ Ward as well as an appearance on The Today Show.[2]
