Band Bio
Live music is, and has always been an important part of our lives. Relic started out 15 years ago as a rock cover band in Staten Island. We have expanded our influence and fan base over the general New York and New Jersey areas and have performed hundreds of events, including concerts, clubs, the Woodstock reunion festival, the Back to the Beach concerts, various benefits, and New Year’s Eve in Times Square, just to name a few. Each member of the band contributes to the rich diversity of great popular tunes and styles that reflects Relic’s commitment to people having fun wherever we perform.

He took vocal lessons for 4 years, and has been in many rock cover bands, and one original rock band called “etc” which he wrote all the lyrics and most of the music for, and was being shopped by Chrysalis records. Mark’s powerful vocals and wide range gives him the versatility to sing all the different covers that Relic enjoys playing.
