DISCOVER HIS STYLE
When first discovering Mark Fox's style the phrase 'Unexpected' immediately comes to mind.
With a style that is uniquely his own, and a repertoire as well known as any 'Count Down' tribute show. You will know the songs but it might take you a moment to work out what they are. The truly surprising part is they don't sound wrong, in fact if anything, you'll go away wondering if that is the way they were supposed to be played.
When broached on the subject his answer is simple
..."I guess you have to hear it,"...

Mark was great, what can I say, the whole night went super smoothly and he didn’t mind extending the playing for over an hour, I can’t recommend enough.

What a great night, awesome, awesome, awesome covers. Better than the originals.

We didn’t know anything about Mark when we got him for our parents wedding anniversary party. It was a last minute booking and he had to come straight from another booking. We got nervous when he turned up as he seemed, so laid back, every question was answered with no problems, or sure I can do that. What we didn’t realise was that there was no problem and he could do it. What a great night, you MUST hire this guy.

I kind of stuffed him around a bit, he had to move twice and it wasn’t exactly what he was expecting when he turned up, but he took it in his stride and gave us a great night of music everyone loved it.
