ABOUT

Hailing from Boston, Mark has been wielding the Ax since he was thirteen. He has been tearing up numerous stages and venues all over the East Coast throughout his adult life. He has performed with bands such as Signal 20, Chrome Heart, Mommies Little Monster, Final Approach, Take Cover, and the original Alien Rhythm. Mark has stepped out of the shadows and into the spotlight as front-man, lead vocalist, and guitarist for Cheap Shot. He seduces the crowd to their feet and keeps them moving with raw vocals, fast, commanding fingers that never miss, and a fire for pure, guitar-driven rock. Keeping the momentum going, original songs are in the works and a CD is on it's way!
