Mark infuses all his music with the energy, attitude and swagger of a new generation of creators. His lyricism, soulful tone and grace of technique spread infectious joy and excitement among audiences and fellow musicians alike. His music is full of rhythm, blues, and with hints of gospel, soul and spiritual jazz. With this signature mix, he may just bring jazz back to the dance floor.
One of the Banger Factory will present the Late Late Show in February and March 2026 in Mark's absence.
Late Late Shows on Wednesday nights are led by a host of leading jazz players who will present their own bands, followed by a jam for invited guests.
