Cover Recordings-Music of Mark Simos
Mark Simos Songs and Tunes Recorded by Other Artists
As a songwriter and tunesmith, one of the greatest pleasures in my musical life is hearing music I have written performed and recorded by great singers and players. Here are some wonderful CDs featuring songs and tunes of mine by artists who are also selling their products on CDBaby. There are many albums by prominent artists such as Alison Krauss and Union Station, Laurie Lewis, the Del McCoury Band and others not listed here, as these artists sell through labels rather than independently. But I greatly value the many fine independent artists who have chosen to record my music - please support them!
