Best known as the lead singer for The Bluetones, and now also having been a solo artist since 2008,  Mark Morriss has spent the best part of 3 decades honing his craft as a live performer.

During that time he has released 6 albums with The Bluetones, including 14 Top 40 singles, and 4 albums as a solo artiste. 2024 will see brand new Bluetones material released with plans of three 4 track EP’s.

As a live performer Mark is able to blend songs from his extensive back catalogue with stories of his time on the road, providing an entertaining show that prides itself on never being the same twice.

Spellbinding; passionate, humorous and open – the sound of a singer who could take on the world.”– On-Magazine
