Basically "Effective Now" is a one man band. Marco Petrella has had many band experiences as a Bassist, Guitarist, Keyboardist and singer. After a few flopped attempts with various bands, he decided to produce/compose his own music, thus creating "Effective Now". Presently he has formed a new band with other musicians, Jason McCulloch(drums & percussion), Darrin McCulloch(drums,percussion & Keyboards), Rick Lambert(guitars) and they are now actively performing these compositions as a full emsemble.
