Mark has played across England and Wales with his two major bands The Brickbats (who mixed world music with jazz and folk) and Rootdogs. He plays bouzouki, harmonica and national steel guitar. Mark has toured Brittany twice, plays regularly in Denmark and occasionally in Italy. He has released twelve albums under his own name and has guested on several more.
