Mark is currently gigging all over the country and putting the finishing touches to Backstreet Ballads...(part two).
..Mark, I just listened to your CD "Backstreet Ballads" (twice) and really enjoyed it. It reminds me of early Leonard Cohen, though you have a better natural voice and better guitar picking. Your lyrics are excellent, intelligent, mature, and insightful, your melodies innovative yet provocative, and the combination of your guitar, melodies and lyrics meld beautifully together to create a feel that you don't ever want to end. As a matter of fact, I think I'll go order your EP right now. Keep that music coming, I can't wait for "Backstreet Ballads part 2." Good luck, Ron
Hi Mark great gig at Hery Boons last night supporting Slaid Cleaves thats twice i have seen you there recently.I am loving your sound bought the CDs so i can take the music home.
..I really enjoy your music, but when I try to buy your album (or EP) I'm told that you don't ship to the United States. Disappointed. Anyway to get around that? Ron

After you've finished here, you may like to hear this folk-carol on myspace... Poem 230 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (see my blog for details): CHRISTMAS SUNG SIMPLY
As gospellers have said, Beneath signalling skies, On land dusty to tread, A trough in a stable Was the strawy first-bed Of a divine baby - The forgiving Godhead.
A season for new hope - There then and here now; The yuletide of goodwill - There then and here now.
In respect of this chance, Beneath bright or dark skies, Faith's the star that we glance Attending Christ's churches And trying to enhance, With singing and ritual, Our God-loving stance.
Just thought i'd drop by and let you know our debut album "Swings & Roundabouts" is out now. CD's can be ordered directly from our myspace using the PayPal button, Also the album is available for digital download on all the major stores including iTunes, Play.com and amazon.com.
