Album Notes

Release My Soul is the new cd from former Dickey Betts and Great Southern guitarist and vocalist Mark May.

A staple on the blues scene for over 15 years, perfecting his craft in Houston, Texas since the mid eighties, Mark recently returned to his roots in his hometown of Columbus, Ohio, where he played guitar at age 5 and performed in nightclubs before his 15th birthday. His astonishing live shows featuring dynamic twin leads and dual harmony guitar work are the perfect compliment to Mark’s smooth vocals. The band’s material includes many of Mark’s original songs, traditional blues and classic rock, and even steps into jam-band territory.

Mark has been featured in Blues Review, Guitar Player, Guitar World, Vintage Guitar, Tone Quest and other major publications. He has had numerous major endorsements including Peavey, GHS Strings and Robin Guitars, and currently gets heavy rotation on Sirius/XM and Sonic Tap satellite radio.
