   About Mark Ward
MARK WARD: Little Lights
MARK WARD: Broken

Mark Ward - Little Lights

"When you're one person with a guitar, you better have something compelling to separate yourself from all your like-minded compatriots. Ward definitely does-a magnetic, spine-tinglingly beautiful voice." -Jeff Echert, The Inlander (Oct 20, 2008)

" The incandescent crackle of a young songwriter taking the lens of his musical idols and turning it upon himself, finding something sad, hopeful and unique. " - Luke Baumgarten, The Inlander (Oct 18, 2007)

"A finalist in the Susquehanna Music and Arts Festival's national songwriting competition earlier this year, Mark Ward is a hard-working (usually solo) performer who frequently surprises audiences by looping melodica lines while playing guitar and kick drum. " - Joel Smith, The Inlander (Jul 17, 2008)

"Mark Ward is a talented musician whose music offers emotional sincerity in the subjects of love and life. He has a folksy-acoustic sound the is sweetened with well written, soul-driven lyrics." - Staff, Spokane Sidekick (Nov 02, 2006)

-Songwriting accolades:=>

+2009 Mike Pinter's Songwars Honorble Mention

+2009 Best Local Artist nominee, Spokane Music Awards

+2008 Susquehanna arts and and music festival songwriter competition finalist

+2007 Best album nominee, Spokane Music Awards

My first two singles called "The Singles" are now available on iTunes!!! They include the NEW version of "Have Faith" and the new song, "Someday." Please visit iTunes and type in Elizabeth South. If each peson will purchase just one or two of the new singles off iTunes, it can help support me as an independent artist to get my music distributed world wide for my new album to be released in February 2010. And, I’d really appreciate it if you’d add my new FACEBOOK music page: www.facebook.com/elizabethsouthmusic Thank you so much for your support!
