Ep 29: Mark Harrison
from New Starz Show Hosted by Neil Clark
A genuine blues singer and musician, who stopped playing until he found his niche. After realising that his cover songs sounded different to the originals he then embarked on creating genuine blues music. He started to do gigs all over London, in all sorts of fine and well-regarded venues – some solo, many with Charles Benfield (double bass), Ryan Carr (mandolin), Ed Hopwood (drums) and Will Greener (harmonica), in various combinations. With that fine bunch of musicians, I did a couple of hundred gigs over the following couple of years, including supporting such fine touring US artists as The Holmes Brothers and Doug MacLeod and there were radio appearances too. He was then producing album after album, then covid struck and put a stop to gigs, but that hasn't stopped Mark from writing and recording more songs. You can find Mark everything to know about Mark and his songs on his website markharrionrootsmusic.com Explicit permission has been given by the artist to play their music
