A striking mix of haunting vocals, infectious melodies and poetic lyrics has left Sydney based singer/songwriter Mark Wilkinson's music firmly imprinted in the minds of his growing fan base. Marks performances carry a passion and intensity that strives for an emotional connection and reaction from his listeners.
Mark's career began as a solitary bedroom composer. Despite learning the cello and piano at a young age, it was not until his university years that Mark began writing music on the guitar.

Mark's growing momentum and live reputation has seen him headline shows across much of the East Coast as well as supporting the likes of Johnny Diesel, Sarah Mcleod, Bernie Hayes and Damien Leith.
