Press Release: A Bad Think consists of the sole member of Michael Marquart, who is releasing his 5th album, SLEEP on Windmark/The Orchard on June 17th, 2014. The album is a collection of 12 songs of modern alternative music that is the glimpse of the singer-songwriter. Tracks of life, love, hope and loss.

The album was produced by Marquart and mixed by Jason Elgin (Collective Soul, Creed) and recorded in Los Angeles at Windmark recording and in Windmark's east coast studio.

Marquart has spent a lot of time in recording studios throughout his career. In 2012, he bought the world famous Flyte Tyme studio in Los Angeles from superstar producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. He gutted all of the offices on the first floor to build a new Analog tracking Room that includes Les Paul's personal 2" ampex 16 track mm1000 and rebranded the studio as Windmark Recording. Windmark's impressive client roster reads like a who's who of the music industry's power players including, Timbaland, Rhianna, Young Jeezy, Epic, Universal Records, Def Jam Records, etc.

In the 90's, while recording some solo material with former David Bowie guitarist/producer Stacy Heydon, Marquart was recruited by British Grammy Award winning band, A Flock Of Seagulls to fly to New York and play drums on a new album. After the session, he joined the band briefly, but decided not to continue so he could focus on his own music. His previous albums included A BAD THINK (2006), SIMPLY RHYMES (2009), SARA LESS (2010) and MEDICINE (2012).
