Mark is just some guy - a guy who has been in far too many bands. Which bands? None you've heard of. And that's the point. He gets it. Mark knows what it is to ...
On this episode of Cut Outs, I chat with Nathan of Durham Co, UK's Martha about their 2022 album, Please Don't Take Me Back.

Waxing Poetic: Young Offenders
On this episode of Cut Outs, we provide another great episode of Waxing Poetic, where I am joined by friends to review some of the EPs littering my studio. For this episode, Brendan, Brian, and I discuss the S/T four song EP from San Francisco band Young Offenders.

Mark is just some guy - a guy who has been in far too many bands. Which bands? None you've heard of. And that's the point. He gets it. Mark knows what it is to lug gear, and play to half-empty rooms. And all these years later, Mark has never stopped rooting for the unsung musicians who never got the break they deserved. He haunts record stores looking for lost alt-rock treasures, unearthing DIY releases and short runs of great records that went largely unspun. Quite simply, Mark is on a mission to rescue the best indie albums from the discount bins of history.
