* Bull Run Concert Series: The Mark Marquis Group

4-5-2014 (Sawtelle Room)

Mark Marquis, critically acclaimed guitarist, is one of the finest musicians you will hear anywhere. Along with his band, The Mark Marquis Group, he has been performing his own blend of jazz, blues, rock, fusion and world music in concert, clubs and festivals for the past thirty years with a fantastic line up of musicians.

In addition to performing his compositions, Mark has been known to pull out and place his own spin on music by such artists as Miles Davis, John Coltrane, The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix and more.  His solo guitar segments are often a highlight of his concerts.  Whatever direction he may take, Mark has a way of bringing his own unique style to whatever is being played.
Marquis has written arranged and produced a number of CDs, including the titles, Above the Clouds,  The Invisible Ray,  Right Place, Right Time.    His annual “Most Peaceful Night of the Year” holiday concerts are some of the most popular and well attended shows in the Worcester County area.
Fantastic guitar playing…always a great band.
