Mark Mayer first picked up the guitar at the age of 12. By age 13 he was already playing in a local band. Since then Mark has played for several local and regional acts handling Bass Guitar/Backing Vocals, Bass Guitar/Lead Vocals and at times functioning as the band's stage manager. When not working with his current band, he performs regularly as a Solo Acoustic Performer in local venues and for private events. He runs a weekly Open Mic that is now in its seventh year, as well as a monthly Music Showcase down the Jersey Shore. In addition, Mark works as an Instructor and Show Manager for The School Of Rock.
An avid Beatles fan, Paul McCartney was the inspiration for Mark to pick up the guitar and is still the biggest influence for his musical style and direction.
