Biography

Early life and musical beginnings: KaRadreon and H2O

Born in Florence, she spent her early childhood in Sesto Fiorentino. At the age of four, she moved with her family to Aradeo in the province of Lecce, from where her parents originally came.[17] She acquired her passion for music from her father Rosario, who was a guitarist in a band from Aradeo called "Karadreon", which was formed when Marrone was about 10 years old, and which performed in festivals and clubs. She was in a band called H2O (always the Father).[18][19] She graduated from classical high school, writing a thesis on music.[20] She worked in a warehouse and was a saleswoman for three years.[21][22]

TV experience on Superstar Tour and performing with Lucky Star, Mjur and Anonimo Soul

Marrone started her professional musical career in 2003, when she took part in the second Italian edition of Popstars (later renamed Superstar Tour); she won the talent show, and along with Laura Pisu and Colomba Pane formed Lucky Star. The group released a successful single in 2003 called "Stile", on the Universal label. In 2006 the group recorded the soundtrack of the cartoon W.I.T.C.H. and released a dance-pop album, called LS3.[23][24] The band then broke up.

In 2007, she formed another alternative rock group, M.J.U.R. (which stands for "Mad Jesters Until Rave").[25][26] The group won a contract with Dracma Records, recorded an album between August and September 2007, and released the album Mjur in January 2008, with ten tracks written and composed by its members.

Between 2007 and 2009, she was in the band Anonimo Soul with her uncle Emidio Marrone, performing soul and funk.[27][28] Until 2009 she also played with H20, a band in which her father Rosario Marrone was a member.

In a March 2011 interview with Gioia,[94] Marrone revealed that in 2009 on the eve of a promotional mini-tour with Mjur, she discovered she had uterine cancer.
