Mark Slaughter's career as a multi-platinum vocalist, award winning songwriter, successful producer, multi-media musical composer and innovative voice over artist have insured him a highly regarded and much revered place in the music industry.
As front man for the band Slaughter, who sold in excess of five million records in the 1990s, Mark toured worldwide to sold-out arenas, generating unmatched notoriety and airplay on MTV and VH-1. Slaughter influenced a generation of rock music fans with Top 30 hits on the Billboard charts with classic tunes such as the heartfelt “Fly To The Angels” and the raucous “Up “All Night.” Slaughter attained huge critical acclaim, taking home not only an MTV video music award but an American Video music award for the Best New Heavy Metal Band.
Slaughter was a pioneer band of their time as they wrote, produced and performed their own music, maintaining control of all aspects of their compositions and insuring quality presentation and integrity of their songs.
Prior to Mark's creation of Slaughter, along with bass player Dana Strum, Mark was the lead singer of the Vinnie Vincent Invasion, whose number one hit song “Love Kills” appeared on the “Nightmare on Elm Street 4” movie soundtrack in 1988.
Now branching out successfully doing voice over work and composing music for major television, movies and sports outlets, Mark Slaughter’s incredible vocal diversity is highlighted with credits that include ongoing music compositions for Fox Sports, as well as successful voice over ventures in major productions like “Batman Beyond,” “Bloodsport,” Freakazoid!” and “Animaniacs.”
Mark is very active in charitable causes, such as his participation with St. Jude’s Children's Hospital, responsible for generously giving of his time and effort in numerous benefit concerts and fundraising events.
Another of Mark's projects is a band called Scrap Metal, which has signed with the renowned William Morris Agency. Besides Mark, Scrap Metal consists of an elite group of lead singers of multi-platinum bands from the "Hair Metal" genre, including Gunnar and Matthew Nelson (Nelson), Kelly Keagy (Night Ranger) and Eric Martin (Mr. Big).
