Mark Haskins

Music In The Haskins' Household Was As Much A Second Language As English Or Spanish Is To Another. Mark Haskins’ Late Father Was A Violinist And His Sister A Music Teacher. So There Was Always A Tune Coming From Some Part Of The House. Mark's Room Though Was Flooded With The Likes Of Miles Davis And Wes Montgomery. Imagine A Seven-Year- Old Tackling The Likes Of “Footprints” And “Born To Be Blue” On The Piano. Mark Did Just That As His Lessons Started At An Early Age Only Moving Onto The Drums A Decade Later. Five Years Later He Switched To The Guitar. Many Thought He'd Jump Right Into Music After High School But He Went To University And Graduated With A Master’s Degree Focused On Electronic Engineering And Computer Science. Soon After That Was Obtained He Switched Gears And Went On To Further His Music Studies Jazz At The Trinity College Of Music In London. It Was There That He Took That Childhood Love Of The Greats And Channeled Them As He Grew Into His Own Modern Day Jazz Artist. Now An Artist With Almost Four Decades Of Experience Behind Him He's Built Up An Impressive Resume Of Accomplishments. From Playing Around The World Touring With Countless Artists To Being On The Bill Of Major Jazz Festivals To Being Featured On BBC - He's Done It All And Then Some.
