Mark Mackay & Lee Kelley S03EP07

On this episode of Roger the Wild Child Show, we are joined by country and rock artist, Mark Mackay along with singer/songwriter, Lee Kelley!MARK MACKAYSometimes, especially now, writers will discuss genre-bending music as if it’s a new thing. It’s not.  First off, great music is timeless isn’t it? The best artists have always had the sense of what came before them. Mark Mackay’s music embodies that tradition; wielding a guitar that fuels his sound that can be measured with a bow to the legendary artists that came out Laurel Canyon in the 1960’s, 70’s, 80’s… and continues today. Mark’s music links to the renowned acts who teetered the line between rock and country but were also full of soul: Neil Young, Poco, Jackson Browne, and on and on. Mark’s not been under a rock; his well-crafted songs from, “Leaving California,” “Time Will Tell,” and the ones he’s not even written yet, are up-to-date and current. His songs will feel like home for all fans of true music; from Zoomers to Boomers! This past year has been a rough one; to put it mildly. But before the pandemic came crashing down, Mark was playing to huge crowds, stadium sized audiences; sharing the bill with artists who spanned the spectrum- from Blake Shelton to REO Speedwagon to Tim McGraw and Richie Sambora. Mark’s comfortable with all ends of that wide-ranging variety. Mark’s magnetic sound can reach all ends of a stadium or be at home in smaller environs like the Ryman Auditorium. This past year Mark has been busy crafting and recording new music, creating songs that are itching to be performed in front of live audiences. The world is almost ready and not a minute too soon. I’m betting that by the time that you roll into a concert hall, club or even a stadium. You’ll have already digested his newest songs and will be ready to sing-along. www.markmackayofficial.LEE KELLEYKelley, an Ohioan raised country boy, is a Nashville recording artist.
