MARK FAHAD

GUITAR, LEAD GUITAR, VOCALS

  "A thousand miles an endless ride, just my six-string by my side...."

  You feel it from the first note until the last chord echoes in the distance. Whether he's plucking a somber, heart-felt ballad or ripping solo fire, Mark Fahad bares his soul on guitar,  taking the audience on a  journey yet making them feel close to home. Fahad's guitar style; southern-hued blues spiked with classic metal has evolved over decades of live performances in concerts, open mics, backyard jams and recording sessions.  The Outlaw brings an accessible, main street clarity in his songwriting, and invites the listener into his heart.
