BIO SOON I HOPE
Mark Belenson

Mark has been a professional musician and actor for almost 40 years. His smooth tenor and astonishing 3 1/2 octave vocal range had him headed for a career in music from an early age. Rock music, particularly the “British Invasion” of the mid-1960s radically changed the direction that career was to take. His driving, yet melodic basslines and upper register vocal harmonies kept him in demand as a studio and touring musician for over three decades. In 2000 he ended a nearly ten year long stint with southern rockers Bandit, after recording three CDs and touring extensively with the group, to try his hand at yet another musical genre; the folk music of the British Isles. Marks signature fingerstyle guitar and pure tenor voice have been featured on three Wyldefyre CDs, including the just released Have Another. His own CD, Minstrel's Lament, has just been completed. Featuring both traditional and original material, it is truly a solo CD, in that Mark plays all the instruments (six and twelve-string guitars, bass, octave mandolin/bouzouki, percussion) and sings all the parts. With an extensive repertoire culled from the rich folk traditions of Ireland, England, Scotland and Wales along with his own original songs, Mark, also known as Martyn Wylde continues the legacy of the minstrels of olde. You can see and hear him perform live - with Wyldefyre, with Celtic Mayhem or on his own - at a faire, festival or pub near you.
Jack Stamates

Jack is a staggeringly talented multi-instrumentalist, whose axes include fiddles, recorders, crumhorns, shawms, cellos and guitars. Jack studied Irish fiddle technique under the legendary James Kelly and has played in an array of rock, country, renaissance and Celtic bands including, for years, Avalon. Jack’s recordings span the range of his musical interests and include an album of songs and dances from the 14th Century, a collection of Scottish tunes with Jennifer Licko, and tracks on three, recent, platinum-selling pop/rock CDs: Shakira’s “Donde Esta Las Ladrones” and “Laundry Service,” and J. Lo’s “On the Six.”
A Celtic Blessing
May the light of your soul guide you.
May the light of your soul bless the work that you do with the secret love and warmth of your heart.
May you see in what you do the beauty of your own soul.
May the sacredness of your work bring healing, light and renewal to those who work with you and to those who see and receive your work.
May your work never weary you.
May it release within you wellsprings of refreshment, inspiration and excitement.
May you be present in what you do.
May you never become lost in bland absences.
May the day never burden.
May dawn find you awake and alert, approaching your new day with dreams, possibilities and promises.
May evening find you gracious and fulfilled.
May you go into the night blessed, sheltered and protected.
May your soul calm, console and renew you.
One of these days I weill figure out how to use my camera so you can see the videos better..
