Artist picture
Mark Walker's debut solo CD, DYSFUNCTIONAL ILLAUREATE, covers a wide range of mood and texture, touching on the hard & angst-ridden to the slow and ethereal. CD
Hey. So this is who I am and what I do: My name's Mark Walker. I write songs, sing and play them. Bass is my main instrument when playing out live, but I also include guitar & drums and some samples & loops for the recorded material. I started playing music as a kid when I lived in Portland, OR, and continued on up in Seattle, WA during the '90's and now I'm continuing here in New York City. Right now I perform as a solo artist, but I'm also looking to get a band together to play out live as well. Feel free to drop a line if you're a guitarist or drummer and want to hook up and play sometime.

Lyrics
Better Than You Look out behind you, here comes that subtle glance It's here again to tell me that I'm better than you I'm better than you I'm so much better... Can't quite convince you when I'm unsure of me Deep down I have to tell myself I'm better than you I'm better than you I'm so much better than this Hands thrust in my pockets, dare not look up off the floor To see the look reminding me I'm better than you I'm better than you I'm so much better... It's not so much the sound I make as what I'm trying to say While deep down I have to tell myself I'm better than you I'm better than you I'm so much better than this This is not who I am What I'm supposed to be Someone much better than me Someone you'll never see I came with all the right parts, but all the wrong directions Not much of an equation to prove that I'm better than you I'm better than you I'm so much better Bound, gagged, and caged, my personal best has come of age And still no one to see how much I'm I'm better than you I'm better than you I'm so much better than this This is not who I am What I'm supposed to be Someone much better than me Someone you'll never see
