  • Bio

    .. .. .. .. ......FOR BOOKING VISIT........ .. .. ......CLICK BELOW TO CHECK OUT MY BLOG!...... .. Having written his first hint of a song in the fifth grade, Mark Roach has seemingly always known he was born to write songs. It wasn't until recently, however, that he recognized a calling to write worship music. .. At thirteen, Mark picked up his first guitar and finally put chords to the first melody he'd ever written three years earlier. By the time he graduated high school, he had officially adopted the title singer/songwriter. Four years later, Mark released his first full-length recording entitled The Road to Home--the culmination of his tenure at Millikin University in Decatur, IL. .. After Graduating College, Mark headed to Nashville. Still writing primarily secular pop/rock music, the Christian industry in Nashville didn't seem to be a fit, so he headed back to his hometown of St. Louis, MO in '99. Ironically, only months later, Mark accepted what would prove to be a life-changing position at Morning Star Church, a new church start in O'Fallon, where he began writing worship songs as the Music Director and Worship Leader. He is now the Worship Arts Director at MSC, approaching his eleventh year on staff at the church. .. Mark’s debut worship project was released on July 24, 2007 with Myrrh Records and has since spawned three top 10 singles, one of which cracked the top 5 in October of 2008. Seven of Mark's original worship songs have been featured on national and international compilations, including appearances on WOW Next 2007, Absolute Modern Worship 2 [Fervent Records - 2006] and SongDISCovery [vol. 53, vol. 61]. He has been a featured contributor on www.songdiscovery.com, www.pdworshipcommunity.com and www.worshipsource.com, and has led worship and taught at conferences across the United States. Mark's songs are sung in churches around the world and have been translated into multiple languages. In addition to serving full-time at his home church in O'Fallon for over a decade, he has shared the stage with artists such as Amy Grant, Mercy Me, Matthew West, Aaron Shust, Building 429, Echoing Angels, and Big Daddy Weave. .. ...... .... .. ..Conner plays and sings 'A Thousand Hallelujahs'.. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..How to play 'A Thousand Hallelujahs'.. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ....learn how to play 'You Are'...... .. .. .. .. .. .. ......Add to My Profile.. .. .. .. ............ ................ ..

    Christ is risen from the dead, trampling down death by death, and upon those in the tombs bestowing life.

    CHRIST IS RISEN, MARK!
