Mark Dvorak is a modern day troubadour. His concerts are a mix of the familiar and the new, traditional folk and standards from the American songbook. He plays authentic country blues guitar and picks great old-time banjo. Mark enjoys involving his audiences from kids to older folks in sing-along songs, and he mixes in his own well-crafted and often poignant originals. Singer, songwriter, teacher - he does it all brilliantly! Check out his music at here and here.
