British-American mandolinist and musician.


Mark grew up in Sunderland, U.K. and has called both Indiana and Boston home for years. He's an old soul and has drawn music from his life experiences, which range from luthiery and lumberjackery to collegiate life at Berklee College of Music. 

​

Mark has been in the music industry for over a decade; much of this full-time. He's been a regular band leader, directed church music, arranged charts for various ensembles, and has conducted traditional Christmas choirs with pipe organ for large central London gatherings. Mark gives credit for his musical accomplishments to his God, his loving wife Melissa, and to his supportive family.

​

Whether in composition or performance, his style is not defined by perceived musical

boundaries, but often has a focus on rich acoustic tone and strong musical feeling.

 

Mark's playing is influenced by an eclectic array of music styles including Celtic, Northern English Folk, Bluegrass, Country, Blues, Rock, Gospel, and American Roots. Mark has performed to a large variety of audiences and has taken stage in major venues across the United States and the U.K.

​

 

​

Mandolin, Guitar, Violin, and Harmonica.

Mark can sing while playing rhythm, can do vocal harmonies, and is confident to direct all rock band instruments in their relevant roles.
