“Mark’s authenticity and humor demand crowd interaction. I know this firsthand as I’ve been on the tipping side of the bar more times than I can count.” - Sara Custance
About Mark Burke…
The strum of six strings, strength of a voice, and story of a song…these are what drew Mark Burke to country music and what sets him apart from others in the industry.
Born and raised in Stuart, Florida, Mark took to music at a very young age. His father played all kinds of music and that’s where Mark realized the power of a song and that he wanted to write.” To Mark, songwriting isn’t a job – it’s an experience and a way of life. Songwriting is a way to release what you’re feeling, to tell a story, and to connect with people beyond physical and emotional contact. “Performances are great, but the foundation of a performance is the song…it all starts there.” It wasn’t, however, until his senior year when Mark picked up his Dad’s old Yamaha six-string and began plucking away & never looked back.
Today, Mark can be found playing with his band all over the world. He’s had the opportunity to share the stage with acts such as Scotty Emerick, Craig Morgan, James Otto, Chris Cagle, Craig Campbell, Luke Bryan, Josh Gracin, Darryl Worley, Josh Thompson, Jake Owen, and most recently, Chris Young & Jelly Roll
