The spirit and influences of his music come from the connection he has with wolves, hawks, eagles and those who have come before him. Mark has stated, "It is through these things that I have learned that sharing the spirit of my music is very important. The traditional Native American flute music I play offers spirituality and healing as well as a space in which to meditate." Mark plays from the heart and connects with those who have gone before us with the hope that each song will give you, the listener, peace and tranquility. His music has been compared to that of Carlos Nakai, Douglas Spotted Eagle and at times he plays with the same energy as Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull.
After spending a lot of time with the wolves at Wolfsong Ranch Sanctuary in Rodeo, NM it was made clear to me by Creator and the "Old Ones" that I was to share this gift of music and words of love and respect to as many as will listen. The songs that are recorded on this CD are not my own creations but inspirations from Wakan Tankan(Great Spirit)and all those who have walked before us. They have taught me that everything on the earth has a message to bring if we will just listen. I asked for their guidance in this project and it is my hope that your heart will be touched...as has mine. It is also my hope and prayer that we will all learn the true meaning of one simple word...RESPECT. Respect for the earth, respect for each other, and respect for life itself.
We, the two-leggeds have a responsibility to the Earth Mother and ALL its inhabitants, the four-leggeds, the winged ones, the one-leggeds (trees) and the creepy-crawlies as well. We are here as caretakers...NOT takers.
You honor me by reading this and for that I thank you,
Tohigesesdi (peace be with you),
Mark
