The Lonely Hearts – JXN

Fronted by “the real Donnie and Marie”, The Lonely Hearts is your new favorite cover band… even if you haven’t heard us yet.

We bring the hits, the harmonies, and the heartache (the fun kind) — from sing-along anthems to dance floor bangers, and everything in between. Whether it’s classic rock, guilty pleasures, or pop with a twist, we cover it all with our own Lonely Hearts flavor.

We’re not just here to play music — we’re here to throw a party. So if you’re ready to dance, sing along out loud with your favorite lyrics, and fall in love with live music all over again, come find us.

💔 The Lonely Hearts — For the lovers, the loners, and everyone in between!

Marie – Lead Vocals

I wasn’t the little girl belting it out at talent shows—I was the shy one, hiding out in my room with a hairbrush mic, singing like the whole world was listening. By 18, I was leading worship every week, and somewhere along the way that quiet girl found her voice… and never put it down; music has been the heartbeat of my life.

From soulful ballads to rowdy singalongs, I love taking a song and making it feel like a conversation with the whole room. I’ve shared stages with bands, led thousands in worship, and probably sung enough harmonies to last several lifetimes (though I’m not stopping anytime soon).

Offstage, I’m a proud mom of three spectacular kids and one spoiled fur baby. I’m also a licensed Esthetician. I’m happiest when I’m out hiking a new trail, hitting the road for a spontaneous trip, or hunting down the best bites in town (being a foodie is practically my side hustle).

Now I’m fronting The Lonely Hearts with Donnie and some of my favorite humans on the planet, throwing down good songs, big laughs, and a little bit of mischief wherever we go.

Donnie – Guitar

While growing up in the Madison/Ridgeland area, I first fell in love with the guitar listening to my daddy play old country songs around the house. As a teenager, I discovered the electric guitar and was instantly drawn in by the sounds of David Gilmour, Mark Knopfler, and Jimi Hendrix.

I’ve been playing for over 34 years now, and for much of that time, I’ve had the chance to play and lead worship in churches—an experience that’s shaped not just who I am, but my heart for music. In my 20s, I toured and recorded with the Christian band Ninth Hour, which gave me some unforgettable experiences and lifelong friendships.

These days, when I’m not playing music, I’m a proud dad to two beautiful daughters who inspire me daily. And musically, I’m playing with The Lonely Hearts alongside Marie, my Harmony Partner (HP), and a group of my close friends—just a bunch of music lovers doing what we love, bringing good songs and good vibes to local bars and venues.
