Hank Williams, Sr. is what finally hooked Mark. He realized that Country Music and songwriting were where his heart was. After hearing "Your Cheatin' Heart," a tune Mark often includes in his sets, Mark bought his first guitar at age 18.
Mark started learning music under his musical mentor and friend, Zeke Nagy. Nagy was a major player in the Bluegrass and Old Time Music scene in New Jersey at one time, and the elder Zeke was the first to invite Mark to his debut performance. Zeke sheparded the buddy artist through jams and events sponsored by the NJ Bluegreass and Old Time Music Association. Mark's first CD entitle "Pocono Joe" includes a song written by mark entitled " From your Soul" *track 2* on his new release. This song was written from the words Zeke told Mark "God, Family & Music" keep it in that order and you will be ok. It's a great song!
