Boilerplate

Mark leans into his folk rock and graying roots with a lyrical soul and gravelly voice. He often pokes fun at the universal, emotional, comical and uncomfortable realities we’re all too busy or afraid to discuss in polite company.

His songs are a reflection of his roles as the child, friend, lover, husband, father, employee, entrepreneur, and caregiver — with the wisdom of someone who is now much closer to the end than the beginning.

He finds his inspiration in the words and music of his son Jacob, brother Scott, Patti Smith, Matt Berninger, Adam Duritz, Joni Mitchell, Leonard Cohen, Nicolas Carpenter and Kurt Vonnegut Jr.

And so it goes.
