Mark Campbell

Mark Campbell

Known as the “One Man Acoustic Rock and Roll Show” in his hometown of Houston for many years, in an ongoing high-output performance that was highly requested. Mach’s shows are much more varied and low- key listenable in a wider range, eclectic and in step with the environment.

In contrast to his work with Soulshaker, Mach’s solo work is more “Americana,” or “Englaterra,” yet still patently his own.

  • 1994: More Luck than a Cartoon Cat
  • 1997: Mark Campbell / Soulshaker (CD)
  • 2004: Straight Ahead Human ( Soulshaker)
