…born in 1973 in the
heart of the Luneburg Heath in the small town
of Soltau,
I’ve had a passion for music since I started Kindergarten.
This was proved in my first report card, which stated: Mark
likes to sing! My family was very happy about that and
supported me wherever possible.
When I was nine years old, I received my first piano lessons,
and it
didn’t take long until my family gave me my first
small home organ. In school, I jumped at every opportunity
to learn electronic bass, drums and the guitar, so I could
broaden my musical horizons.
After a while I decided that
bass was too monotonous for me and the drums were too loud
to bother my family with, so I decided to pursue the guitar.

As the guitar by itself
still was a bit boring, I started to accompany myself with
my singing. At first there were a few hitches here and there
and sometimes it would sound a bit off, but all that quickly
vanished with practice. I liked that a lot!
It was only natural that I shared my new skills with my
brother and we jammed together until I started my
apprenticeship. This new and exciting career took my focus
off singing and the guitar for a long time.
A tragic blow of fate in June 2006* was the reason for me to
dedicate myself to music again and that is why today, after
more than four years, here I am: MARK EATON - Oldies , Rock
& Pop!
