We first met Mark Piper just after he and his wife Sharon opened up their Schroon Lake Bed and Breakfast back in 2009.

Little did we know that besides his skills in the kitchen, where he can whip up a killer breakfast, that he was a very talented singer and song writer. If you've seen him play the open mic at Witherbee's on Thursdays, you know what we mean. If you haven't  -- then check him out at his new "other" weekly gig every Saturday afternoon in the Town Park next to the Band Shell through the end of the summer.

Click here to hear some of Mark’s original material. We think the track “Hero” has a very Dire Straits feel to it, highlighting Mark’s fine guitar work.

Mark has an upcoming solo show at the Cobble Inn in Elizabethtown on Friday, August 12^th from 7:00pm -11:00pm. You can also learn more about Mark and his music here.
