ONE OF CANADA’S TOP BLUES ENTERTAINERS!

"Rolling The Dice" has garnered glowing reviews world-wide - including “Blues Album of the Year” at the 2005 Quebec Lys Blues Awards.

Produced by Canadian blues legend Jack de Keyzer, the seven-member band (including a 3-piece saxophone section) was recorded live off the floor by Alec Fraser at his famed Liquid Toronto studio. The CD features thirteen great swingin' and drivin' blues tunes - eleven of which are Kevin Mark originals.

A few special guests were on hand for this recording: Blues Hall-Of-Famer Michael Fonfara (Downchild Blues Band, Janis Joplin, Lou Reed) takes the piano seat throughout. The sweet sultry vocals of Linda Fraraccio are showcased on "Let's Do It Again", while Montreal bluesman Laurier Gagnon lends his solid guitar playing to 4 tracks.

It even comes complete with two mini dice in the spine!

  • Great talent = Super album
    author: Clermonddd

    I love this album. The sound of saxs in blues is amazing and this is something different than always just guitar. The other thing is that this is very seldom that you can have so many hits on one album. Congradulations M. Mark i am your fan number one.

  • Great Disc
    author: Paul

    Very good disc, great playing, tight band. Would a good addition to everyone's Blues library. Lots of shuffle and toes tappin' sounds

    Searching for My Baby and So Blue without You have certainly different sounds, but both great songs and fantastic song writing. Kevin Mark has a strong voice, party lovin and keeps everyone hopping. Good Luck.

    Kevin Mark has arrived. He has a fresh new energetic sound - reminescent of the old blues but with a brand new sound and energy. Kevin Mark is a sooth vocalist, talented songwriter and phenomenal musican who sets his own style and creates his own sound. He has got to go "places"!

    Kevin Mark and his band are worth a serious listen. If you like swingin' blues, southern blues or the grind of the Chigago blues, you will find it all wrapped up in this little (big sounding) package. The horn section will leave you begging for more and the rhythm section will move you all over the dance floor. Don't forget Kevin's own personal style on the guitar, this self-taught musician is well deserving of another Blues award. Rolling the dice is a must for every cd collection!

  • ROLLING THE DICE is no gamble! Great album!
    author: DB

    ROLLING THE DICE is worth serious attention for the first track alone! “So Blue Without You” is one truly catchy number…and if you can resist the temptation to play the first song over and over again and move on the other tracks, you’ll be pleased to find that the great songs don’t end! Blues Revue Magazine got it right - “Every cut's a winner." To top it off, Kevin Mark and his band are smokin’ and their strong sense of musicianship is displayed throughout the CD. ROLLING THE DICE is no gamble!

  • Great sound - strong voice - great dancing music.
