Mark Hildreth first started training his voice in grade school, and as a child, taught himself to play the piano. He has a natural ear, even though two of his grandparents were born deaf. His career as an award-winning actor has taken him around the world - he has appeared in over 20 films and 30 T.V. series, including "Pirates of the Carribean 3." He spent 3 years studying at Canada's prestigious National Theater School in Montreal. They took 10 applicants per year. Mark was the youngest.

When he left his first band and went out on his own, an A&R rep at his very first show invited him to play a showcase for a major label in New York. After attending his second show, producer Warne Livesey (Midnight Oil, The Mathew Good Band, 54-40, The The) offered to work with Mark right away, anticipating a long, great career. Splitting his time between Los Angeles and Canada, Mark continues to perform in both countries. Mark and Mr. Livesey are currently recording a new album.

Mark is one of those people who sees the world differently than most. With a style that falls somewhere between Elton John and Stevie Wonder, he is equally adept at commanding a crowd while solo with the piano, or with a band behind him. He has performed in front of crowds of all sizes. He is a winner of the 2006 Singer Songwriter Awards, the Billboard World Song Contest, and his songs have been included on numerous CD's, and have won a number of awards.

Mark Hildreth writes and sings what he means. And everything else seems to follow. Get into him. You'll see.
