Mark's acoustic roots run deep. As a teenager, Mark immersed himself in the vibrant bluegrass and folk music scene in Washington, D.C.

“(Good Life 2009)
Personal, thoughtful and humorous album full of emotion sung so delicately and handsomely which brings a tear or two to the eyes.
Despite originally coming from Washington DC, a place not normally revered for fine country artists, Mark not only tops the list of great artists coming from Washington DC but in fact must be regarded as one of the finest of his generation. This is his sixth album sure is one heck of an effort to be considered as classic status.
A man with valour to write and perform the songs he damn well wants, Mark Elliott is someone we should have heard of before. His obvious talent for putting together a first-rate album is there for all to see, and when the quality is this good it makes you feel rejuvenated and to thank whoever that you are around to hear such quality.
