Mark has traveled the world for many years as both trumpet player and musical director for many shows and artists. Mark left the relentless demands of the road in 1997 to raise his family. Now that all 3 kids are in school, there is time to get out there again.
During this time, Mark has also launched his line of Dyna-Flow® Trumpets. "These horns are what I have always wanted" Mark says. "They don't get in the way of the creative and physical process of playing the trumpet!"
Recently relocating back to Indiana from NYC, Mark is working on a solo recording project with his group BOPLITUDE as well as working with his new BIG BAND.
2008 will be a busy year for Mark as he once again ventures out into the world making music.
