About Mark
Hey! I'm Mark! I've been working as both a bass guitar and guitar instructor for five years though have been playing professionally since 2007.
I teach adults and children of all levels though I particularly enjoy working with beginners.
I have many years experience as a touring and studio musician. I've been the bass player with acclaimed UK band The Jesus and Mary Chain since 2013.
Additionally I'm a songwriter and composer with hundreds of TV credits, most notably as the composer and performer of 'Live In Fear' which became the hugely popular entrance theme for WWE superstar Bray Wyatt.
