John Maolucci comes from a family of musicians. His mother was a vaudevillian childhood prodigy singer/accordionist. She appeared with many of the great celebrities of that time, including tap dancer Bill Robinson, The Three Stooges, Dick Powell, Red Skelton, Henny Youngman, Jan Pierce and Ethel Merman.
Her performance name was "Baby Rosemarie," but because it conflicted with the other child actress and singer, popularly known as: "Rose Marie," ( of sitcom and "Hollywood Squares" fame) it was changed to: "Baby Rosamond." John’s dad was also a musician. He met John’s mom as her accordion student! Although his formal profession was as owner of a construction company, he also performed in clubs, singing and playing the accordion, as a member of his friend's country and western group: "Shorty Cross and The Arizona Riders.”
With this musical inheritance, John became interested in studying voice in college and upon audition, received a scholarship from the now defunct Upsala College of East Orange NJ. Through a cousin, John was introduced to one of the finest vocal teachers in the world, Stephanie Scourby. Ms. Scourby was deemed the "Underground Teacher for The Juilliard School of Music," by her students. Ms.Scourby’cousin, Alexander Scourby, is also the famous actor, and voice over narrator, whose version of The King James Bible is now the most famous on the internet.
