Band/artist history
i trip to prison is what started this band.i had time to think about life,mistakes,love,god and family.so i found myself writing songs about all this ..and i already loved to play and sing before prison..i guess a little voice from above told me..mark if you ever want to have a good life and provide for your wife and children the way you want to.then do what i made you for boy... sing,write..this is what mark west is suppose to do.so i am not trying to do so
Have you performed in front of an audience?
yes i will play live if the opertunity arives
Your musical influences
country music,songs about life love family children god breakups and hookups prison and mistakes. every song you hear this ol boy sing covers one of those areas and tells my life in a song
What equipment do you use?
glad you asked i currently have no band so all i have to use at the moment is my acustic,electric guitar,my voice and my computer..useing loops to make my music so if it sounds bad thats what it is.. set me up in front of a band and i will rock the house and send chills down the audiances backbones
Anything else?
would just like to say that this is a forfetched dream of mine. i don't know if thier is a way to make it bigtime starting out as low as i am and at 30 years old that makes it even harder..being on parole adds to that weight,and just getting out of prison 4 months ago makes it seem impossible.. but hey thier is always a chance so i am going with my heart and my soul all the way..and if i never become a singer maybe i can become a professional songwritersearching
