Consistently reprimanded in school for not paying attention as a child, chronic daydreamer Tracy Marcellino found a way to channel her diversions into assets. She developed an early affinity for synthesizers, singing, and song writing. As a shy young latchkey kid in San Francisco, she preferred to wander around used record shops spending her allowance on records that caught her eye. Sometimes, she'd take some home just for the artwork on the cover. New Order was her favorite band. "I loved how when you listened to them you could feel sad and dance at the same time." Dubbed “gloomy noiseniks” by August Brown of the LA Times, Marcellino’s band, Twilight Sleep, embodies her love affair with sound experimentation crafted into well-written songs.“Interestingly enough, I ‘discovered’ guitar when I moved to LA 7 years ago. For a long time in San Francisco, house music and dj’s were dominating. Starting a band was near impossible. My diversion from that scenario was delving into Warp Records artists like Aphex Twin and the like... people breaking molds. My early songs were comprised of loops, samples, and occasional musical guests such as Tomas from XLR8R magazine
