July 17, 2023Mark came to the gig before we got there, prepared as a professional musician should, and he delivered as we asked. Prior to the gig, we had thorough communications. It was easy to work with him. We took a chance to playing with a drummer we had never played with before, and we're glad it turned out to be a great time playing together. Mark is truly a professional drummer.

July 8, 2022Mark drummed to lead the Columbia Democrats in our July 4 parade. He was professional, personable, and joined our team. He also brought a fellow drummer at no extra cost. Everyone agreed he was a real asset for use I highly recommend him if you want a drummer
