Love playing at 256!!
The name Mark Crissinger might sound familiar. After twenty fantastic years in the Southern Ontario music scene he moved to British Columbia in 2007. Since 2009 he has been building a solo career, playing over 100 shows a year on Vancouver Island, the BC lower mainland, and eastern Canadian provinces. He has released six studio albums, four live albums, and been nominated for a Maple Blues Award. His music can be heard around the world on blues radio programs and the Stingray blues channel.
Mark’s solo show features stellar guitar playing, and soulful vocals. During a song, he’ll sometimes loop (record) what he's playing and solo over it. This sounds like two guitars playing together and fills out the sound of the show.
Blending traditional themes, clever lyrics, and modern arrangements, Mark performs his original folk-rock & blues music while mixing in classic cover songs we all know and love. It's a fun, upbeat, and dynamic night of music that has gained him many years of popularity on the solo tour circuit.
