Early life and education
Marucci was born in Rome, New York, into a musical family with professional histories on both sides. His sister, Mena Marucci Colella, was a concert pianist. His brother, Ed Marucci, was a professional trumpeter. Marucci was classically trained on the piano and switched to drums at the age of 19.
After graduating high school from St. Aloysius Academy in 1963, Marucci studied drums with Dick Howard in Auburn, New York, from 1964–1965. At Auburn Community College, he received a degree in business management in 1965. Marucci relocated to the west coast in 1969. Attending Sacramento City College, he received his associate degree in music, in 1973.
Marucci has lived between New York City, Los Angeles and Sacramento since attending college.

In addition to recording and performing, Marucci has authored several books on drumming for both Ashley Publications and Mel Bay Publications. His recordings and books have garnered four and five star reviews in JazzTimes, Jazziz, Modern Drummer, DownBeat and DRUM! magazines.
Additionally, Marucci has written numerous articles on drumming for Modern Drummer and Downbeat magazines, and for the Percussive Arts Society's Percussive Notes. He has also written articles for several prominent jazz websites including AllAboutJazz.com.
Contributing to jazz education, Marucci has been an adjunct professor in the Los Rios Community College District in the Sacramento area. He was also an applied music instructor at American River College in Sacramento, California, and at the Jazzschool in Berkeley, California, and an applied drum set instructor at the Sacramento Traditional Jazz Society.
