Cory Marks

Canadian Cory Marks grew up listening to everything from heavy metal to outlaw country music. Both genres can be heard in his own brand of Americana. Growing up, Cory excelled playing hockey and won a spot on the Royal Military College team. If he wasn't going to make it as a pro hockey player, his backup plan was to fly fighter jets. Cory played music during his college years, but only for himself. While hanging out at a local bar with his teammates, Cory sang a few songs with the band, including two originals. He's been writing and singing ever since. Who I Am, his debut album, is available now on streaming services. Listen to our conversation as Cory discusses everything from his influences to his love for flying and touring.
