Song Writing and Music Making
Song Writing:
I started song writing when I was a kid. Every once in a while, I'm inspired to write another. The idea for this site is to catalogue most of them in one place. I've noted other contributors and collaborations in the page notes.
Recording Notes:
The recordings are done in my home studio. I am not a professional musician or sound engineer. These are my best attempts at getting song ideas recorded.

- *Bud's Steel Guitar Songs with Mark - completed in 2014 is collaboration of cover song standards, featuring Charles "Bud" Horvath on the steel guitar. I'll miss playing music with Bud and am fortunate that we crossed paths and grateful we were able to record these together.
- *The Acoustic page features a few cover songs I am playing in the "Gypsy Jazz" stye. My studies in this style are in the "beginners" stage.
- The songs on Bud's Steel Guitar Songs with Mark page and on the The Acoustic page are not original or owned by me and are not for sale or distribution.
