notes
"If you hit the string hard enough, it will make a sound." That's Mark's reply to the comment "you're not strumming or picking any notes!" "Using two hands on the fret board gives you lots of options to maintain several independent parts. You are free to play the melody and harmony very far away from the bass. It's like playing piano on the guitar."
The CD was mastered by Trevor Sadler at Mastermind Productions. Trevor has two of the best ears on the planet, and has mastered CDs for Billy McLaughlin, Willy Porter, Jesse Cook, Don Ross, and many others. “Trevor’s mastering really makes the tracks sparkle, with big bass, and a huge sound. He is a good and patient soul, and I am honored to have worked with him.”
Mark draws from many influences, including Michael Hedges, Billy McLaughlin, Willy Porter, baroque and Celtic music. He also has a background in traditional acoustic fingerstyle. Mark performs throughout southeastern Wisconsin, and has opened for Patty Larkin and Billy McLaughlin.

author: EileenMThis is a great CD for every occasion, a quiet dinner, reading a book, doing paper work. I so enjoy listneing to it. It is like wearing a new sweat shirt on a chilly morning.
Wow!!! Great first effort.
author: Mary BI particularly enjoyed the mix of pieces chosen. The CD is great background music for anything I want to do. It is the perfect choice for winding down after a long day. I can't wait for the next CD from Mark.
