Marq Porciuncula (born 1987-01-29) is a German singer, songwriter and entertainer of Filipino descent. Raised in Hamburg, Germany, he discovered a passion for music and dance in his youth and pursued performing arts early on. In 2003, at age 16, he auditioned for the television talent show Popstars - Das Duell and was selected as one of the members of the boy band Overground.

With Overground, Marq Porciuncula achieved rapid commercial success: their debut single "Schick mir 'nen Engel" topped the German, Austrian and Swiss charts, and their first album It's Done went platinum. Over subsequent years, Overground released further singles and a second album 2. OG, and remained active through about 2008. After the group's decline, Porciuncula began to develop his solo career, continuing to compose, record and perform. He is also occasionally credited with acting and dance/entertainment work.

Marq Porciuncula remains a figure in German pop and R&B music, remembered especially for his role in Overground's early-2000s success and his transition into solo performance and creative projects.
