Madonna Wayne Gacy, born on January 12, 1963, is an American musician best known for being the keyboardist of the rock band Marilyn Manson. He has also been a part of the bands Jack Off Jill and Twiggy Ramirez & the Love God.
Gacy was born in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, to parents who were both heavily involved in the local music scene. His father was a drummer in a band called The Gacy Band, while his mother was a singer in a band called The Groovies. As a child, Gacy was exposed to a wide range of music, including classical, rock, and roll, and country.
Gacy began playing the piano at an early age, and by the time he was a teenager, he had started to play the keyboard in his father’s band. He later joined a local punk rock band called The Fartz, where he met future Marilyn Manson bassist Twiggy Ramirez.
In 1989, Gacy and Ramirez formed the band Jack Off Jill. The band was active for several years and released two albums before disbanding in 2000.
In 2002, Gacy and Ramirez formed the band Marilyn Manson, which quickly gained a large following due to their unique blend of shock rock and industrial metal. The band has released eight studio albums and has sold over 50 million records worldwide.
Gacy has also been involved in several side projects, including the bands Twiggy Ramirez & the Love God and Goon Moon. He has also released several solo albums.
Gacy has been married twice. His first marriage was to Rachel Oberlin, with whom he has two children. His second marriage is to Lindsay Usich, with whom he has one child.
Gacy has an estimated net worth of $20 million.
