Mark made the big move from his home in New Jersey to Nashville in January of 2006 with two goals in mind – landing a publishing deal and a record deal for the Mulch Brothers. In 2010 Savannah Music Group signed Mark as a staff songwriter and as an artist as a member of the Mulch Brothers. Just before signing the deal he scored his first cut in Nashville with Universal’s Randy Rogers Band with the song “Steal You Away” (Produced by Grammy Award winning Producer Paul Worley). The song became a single and spent 7 weeks at #1 on the Texas Music Charts as well as enjoying National radio airplay . The song also landed a spot in the film “Country Strong” starring Gwenyth Paltrow and Tim McGraw. This time around Warner Bros. act The Dirt Drifters cut the song for use in the film. The song “Lucky You” from the Mulch Brothers “Dig It Y’All” EP was featured in the Lifetime TV movie “12 Men Of Christmas” and now airs every year as a staple of their holiday programming. Licensing success continued with the song “He’s Lookin’ Better With Every Shot” being featured in the film “Junkyard Dog” as well as a very successful TV/Radio commercial campaign for health care company Connecticare with the theme song “You Know Us By Heart” written with Nick Mulch, Billy Falcon and Rose Falcon. 

    In the 19 years Mark has been writing in Nashville he has written with some of the top names in the Nashville songwriting community including: Dave Gibson, Dylan Altman, Rose Falcon, Billy Falcon, Jeff Middleton, Michael Heeney, Mike Dekle and more. 

    As part of The Mulch Brothers he has had radio success of his own with the single “Love Run Wild” becoming a hit on Sirius/XM satellite radio in 2008. The band has been touring nationally ever since and in 2013 got their second record deal with EFG Entertainment out of Memphis and released their album entitled “Next Of Kin” with the singles “Pushin’ Up Daisies” and “I Ain’t Ever Comin’ Back” getting national radio airplay. Mark and The Mulch Brothers have opened for such artists as: Eric Church, Bon Jovi, Craig Morgan, Big & Rich, Jewel, Eric Paslay and more! 

In the past few years Mark has turned to the production and artist development side of things.
