Looking for elegant instrumental guitar for your wedding or event? My solo guitar music is perfect for wedding ceremonies, drinks receptions, intimate dinners, restaurants, corporate events and private celebrations. I create unique fingerstyle arrangements of well-known songs, combining melody, bass and harmony to create a complete instrumental sound. My repertoire includes music from artists such as The Beatles, Fleetwood Mac, Dolly Parton, Bob Marley and many more, alongside traditional Irish music and instrumental guitar pieces from fingerstyle guitar pioneers such as John Fahey. With many years of experience as a professional musician, I provide relaxed and atmospheric live music for weddings, events and special occasions nationwide. Watch some video clips below, explore my repertoire, and get in touch if you would like to discuss your event. The following is a sample of tunes from my set list: Take Me To Church - Hozier Billie Jean - Michael Jackson Where The Streets Have No Name - U2 Little Lies - Fleetwood Mac Avril 14th - Aphex Twin I Shot The Sheriff - Bob Marley Get Back - The Beatles The Last Steam Engine Train - John Fahey Strawberry Fields Forever - The Beatles Jolene - Dolly Parton Sunflower River Blues - John Fahey Norwegian Wood - The Beatles Bad Moon Rising - Creedence Clearwater Revival Kensington Blues - Jack Rose Waterloo Sunset - The Kinks Rhiannon - Fleetwood Mac Request for special songs can be catered for.

My husband and I chose Mark to play at our reception at our recent wedding. We couldn't be happier with our decision. Mark was super easy to deal with. He's an amazing musician and the amount of compliments we received since about Mark's playing has been just lovely. It was so nice to think that our guests were loving Mark's music while we were off getting our photos taken. Once special memory for me was when we arrived back at the hotel. We got out of our vintage VW camper and could just hear Mark playing away, guests chattering and the clinking of glasses. Don't hesitate to book Mark for a unique, chilled out vibe at your wedding. Thanks so much Mark!

Mark played at a recent wedding I attended. He played so beautifully and captured all of us who were sitting outside listening. His music was relatable, playing the likes of Fleetwood Mac and Michael Jackson. Highly recommended for a wedding reception, or some formal type reception.
