notes
Mark Bruland was born in Detroit, and at age three began playing by ear and composing on an old upright grand player piano in his basement. Inspired by artists playing Motown, rock and blues, Mark cut his musical path listening to the Beatles, Temptations and B.B. King.
Now living in southwest Wisconsin and raising their two daughters on Appley Ever After Farm, Mark and his wife Nancy enjoy working in their apple orchard, blueberry and raspberry patch, working the rows of asparagus, tending to 12 colonies of honeybees, two dairy goats, making maple syrup, and collecting brown omega-3 eggs from their 100 organic laying hens.
Wisconsin Dawn was written and recorded during most of the 2003-2004 winter months (while their farm was at rest, buried in snow). It is new age meditative music featuring strong melodies and an ambient feel. Mark utilizes a Roland XP-60 workstation, a Boss BR-8 digital recording studio, Boss DR-770 rhythm machine and an acoustic Takamine guitar. He can be e-mailed at mark.bruland@organicvalley.com and always appreciates your opinions, suggestions and ideas.
Mark's follow up CD, HERITAGE, is being duplicated currently and should be available soon!

After 10 days of shipping I got this CD and...
author: Mario...I have heard it several times the last days. Great sounds, sometimes slow to feel thinkable, sometimes faster to give you power and thrust to catch all obstacles in the world. Yeah, I like the CD very - more I recommend it! Regards out of Germany, Mario

The music transports you to a different world...of relaxation and beauty...of a simpler and more peaceful time. This artist is truly gifted. I will definitely be looking for more of his offerings.
Captivating and enchanting !
author: Roy SimonsThe compositions are full-bodied and draw the listener into fertile imagery of the mind. Mark's first CD is a promising Dawn, indeed. Some of these songs would be great movie soundtrack music. Great mixture of homegrown and new age/meditative. Start working on the follow-up! -Roy Simons, Topanga Canyon, CA
