Page
“Whether playing nightclubs, hotels, corporate concerts, private parties or opening for one
of today's major stars, Mark Wood always leaves his audience screaming for
more.”
Having begun
performing professionally at the age of eleven, Mark has practically grown
up the on stage. With a repertoire of
over 2000 songs, he easily covers the range of many popular music
styles including Pop, Country, Rock and Standards. Mark was recently
featured in a thirty minute TV special on PBS, performing songs from his
two new CDs entitled, The Lessons of Life and Now That You’re
Gone.
Mark’s guitar playing has been compared with the virtuosity of Leo Kotke
and his piano adds a unique dimension to his performance that is
reminiscent of early Elton John and Billy Joel, with the harmonica! With a
four octave vocal range, and an incredible gift for recreating a variety
of vocal and music styles, Mark entertains as well as amazes his
audiences.
Mark has been featured as the opening act for many recording artists
including Jimmy Buffett, Mac MacAnally, Don McLean, Kenny Rankin, Randy
Meisner of the Eagles, Robbie Kreiger of the Doors, Bruce Hornsby and the
Range and platinum-selling country star Sammy Kershaw, to a crowd of
nearly 10,000 fans.
Recently Mark Wood and the Parrot Head Band was the pre-show favorite at
Jimmy Buffett’s latest Irvine Meadows concert in Irvine, California.
Mark has also headlined at the world famous Roxy, the Whisky and the Coach
House to sellout crowds, performing his original songs to rave reviews...
