about

Mark Szabo Vancouver, British Columbia

Four-eyed southpaw.
"a self-confessed 'record-collector type' who lives in Vancouver, British Columbia, plays guitar left handed, and writes the damnedest songs you've ever heard...
...Another feature of Mark's songs makes them unusually appropriate for reinterpretation: their avoidance of the confessional and autobiographical."
-Franklin Bruno. ... more
