biographical info
Mark Wilson is a 21 year old who is quickly making an impression in the Ottawa folk underground.
In the winter of 2005, Mark Wilson released his debut solo recordings titled The Endless Elevator Tour EP. The album moves through several pieces, each with its distinct arrangement and driven by Wilson’s unique vocal style. Themed with easily forgotten societal issues and how they affect us on a personal level; the album received positive praise for Wilson’s songwriting abilities.
“The lyrics hold a depth, beauty and wisdom rare for a young man of 21.” –Kingston This Week
After a winter / spring season of Eastern Ontario touring, Wilson returned to Ottawa to perform a memorable show at the National Art Center in April 2006 where he would be named the recipient of CBC’s Galaxie Rising Star Award.
As college radio play of the EP begins to catch some wind, Mark Wilson and his recently formed backing band The Last Dinosaur continue to perform and gain attention along the way.
