Biography

Marotta was born in New York City and taught himself to play drums at the age of nineteen.[2] He was in a band called The Riverboat Soul Band, which released an album called Mess-up in 1968.

Marotta spent several years in the early 1970s as the drummer for his own group, the short-lived Brethren.[3] Tom Cosgrove sang and played lead, Stu Woods played bass (he would later appear on Todd Rundgren's Something/Anything? album), and Mike Garson played keyboards. They released two albums; the first was the eponymous Brethren, which was mildly successful. The second, released as the band was crumbling, is almost impossible to find. The band had a unique sound, a mixture of rock and country, with traces of jazz and influences from Dr. John, who wrote the album notes and the song "Loop Garoo" for them.

Marotta has composed music for the television sitcoms, Everybody Loves Raymond and Yes, Dear.[4] His brother, Jerry, is also a noted drummer and percussionist who has recorded and toured with Peter Gabriel.
