Dayliner of the Day

Baby Dayliner ~ aka Ethan Marunas ~ is from and based in NYC. He went to Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts ~ the high school from the 1980 film FAME.

Under the Baby Dayliner moniker, Marunas has released two albums on Brassland Records.

Here's a single from his latest EP:
You Push, I'll Go

Marunas' first influence was classical music that his parents and private teachers fed him as a child violinist (age 7-17). Later came jazz and hip-hop records ~ that prove influence in his pseudo-rap tracks. He finally whet his chops in pop and cites Hall and Oats as his major duo of influence.
