Mark Hackley

• Mark Hackley - Guitar/ Harmonica/ Piano

Mark Hackley lives in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia and has been writing songs since age 15, and learned guitar at 9. Mark plays acoustic guitar and sings about work, marriage, love, about living in America, about good times and tough times. His music is great as background for parties or for a sit-down concert. He usually sings by himself, but can be joined by folk-singer friends, Brenda Remis and/or Howard Barnett by request.

In 2004, Mark produced his first country album called 'Family Man In Crisis'. He released his second album, 'Hurricane' in 2008. His third album 'Road to Paradise' will be released in 2009.

Mark has his own portable sound system that is perfect for small to medium-size venues and has access to larger systems for larger shows. He also has played with the country band "Pony Express" which played at the Grand Old pry in Nashville. His specialties are performances in small country bars, backyard parties, corporate gatherings, downtown outdoor events, performing art centers, and small-medium charity fundraising events.
