Richard Marx Biography

Richard Marx is a singer-songwriter and producer renowned for his smooth, emotive vocal style and chart-topping songwriting. Bursting onto the music scene in the late 1980s, he scored massive hits like “Hold On to the Nights,” “Right Here Waiting,” and “Satisfied,” earning multi-platinum albums and critical acclaim. Beyond his own recordings, he has penned hits for other top artists—including “Dance With My Father” for Luther Vandross and “This I Promise You” for *NSYNC—and worked as a respected session musician and producer. In 2024, Marx earned a place in the Illinois Rock & Roll Museum on Route 66’s Hall of Fame—marking a proud recognition from his home state.

Offstage, he hosts a weekly podcast called Stories To Tell, where he shares intimate cocktail-hour conversations with fellow musicians, revealing untold behind‑the‑scenes stories and celebrating the songwriting craft.
