Mark is a twenty five year old spoken word songwriter from York. His lastest release "Eggs, Kes and that bike I
never bought you, even though that I would like to" was released in January on Desert Mine Music and is Mark's
third release in the past 6 months for the label.
Recording for the album began in early January and, as is the norm with Mark's releases, was completed in just under
three sessions. Song titles on this album include "Sunday and we went to see the baby", "Michael makes a phonecall"
"BHS thing" and "Eggs and juice". Titles which clearly put Mark outside of your standard singer songwriter bracket.
To help promote this release Mark has booked himself a month long tour of the UK this february which will
include dates in Penzance, Colchester, Balham, Kettering, Bacup, Manchester, Brighton as well as a Live Session
on BBC 6 music for Tom Robinson on the 9th of February at 9pm.
?Like the early John Cooper Clarke or Mark E Smith, Mark Wynn has the potential for national treasure status
twenty years down the line. And that's not something you'll hear me say often or lightly. ? Tom Robinson BBC 6 Music
"In an indie scene where conformity and conservatism can stifle creativity Mark Wynn is prepared to sound, and be, different."
Rhubarb Bomb, Wakefield fanzine
?Everything you?ve read about The Streets and Mike Skinner?s kitchen-sink microdramas applies to this collection,
only in here, it?s true, it?s real ? or made up on the spot? Christopher Nosnibor, Whisperinandhollerin

Hi Alva. Your CD was reviewed in issue 10. You can get this via the main page: http://www.icecreamforquo.webs.com. Or, if you just want me to e-mail you the text of the review, I can do that instead. Let me know, anyway.
just read issue 11 whilst lying on the sofa, coming down with a cold.
issue read - the symptoms vanished - miracle
a tonic for these troubled times
thank you
Important note: even though you need an e-mail address to leave a comment here, this will not be displayed on the page or made available to anyone (including me).
Do you have any merchandise displaying ICFQ front covers? I am particularly interested in drinks coasters, pure cotton bed linen and fine china. With many thanks, Judith.
