Influences: All great songwriters. Cool 70's horn-bands and rock bands. Songs, whether new or old, that showcase the craft of songwriting. The airwaves are broadcasting a lot of "music" that is not quality work, which overlooks many stellar artists!!! However, it's difficult to improve upon what the master songwriters of the past have already done.
Sounds Like: "Great production, writing and performance, those horns are TIGHT! (smiles) Very solid pop & R&B music. It reminds me of great music of old. (When music was still music)" - Speech, Grammy award winner with Arrested Development. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Uplifting, positive grooves and lyrics with killer horn arrangements! 'Lookin' At Tomorrow' is a vision with Mark Dolin very much a part of the future musical scape." - Steve McCarty, multi-platinum recording artist with the Steve Miller Band.
Record Label: Available @ CD Baby, iTunes and Strokeland too.
Type of Label: None
