Testimonials...
"Mark came to entertain us in a house we'd rented for the weekend to celebrate our silver wedding anniversary. Thankfully the sun shone and mark was able to perform in the garden, with everyone dancing around him. Mark's playlist covered all genres and there really was something for everyone to enjoy. A really friendly chap, with a beautiful voice, I'd highly recommend mark and would certainly book him again. Thank you Mark!"

"I've performed with top tributes, performers and bands over the years and sung to celebs in places such as THE SAVOY in London and I can say that Marks show is as entertaining as they come. Strong vocals, witty banter and an ability to make each person in the room feel he is singing just for them...now I wish he could teach me that trick!"
