Mark Fossen

Mark Fossen is a Canadian alt-folk singer-songwriter currently based out of rural Nova Scotia. Originally from the the small Vancouver suburb of Port Moody, he spent his early twenties as a travelling busker performing streetside for audiences all over the world in support of two independently released EPs, Villains (2012) & The Dance (2014).

Recent years have seen him continuing to live and perform throughout Canada, making stops on such notable stages as Mariposa Folk Festival, RBC Bluesfest and the TD Music Cafe.

Fossen's soulful-yet-delicate vocal melodies, earnest lyrics, and cheeky stage banter have been know to leave audience members unsure whether to laugh, cry, or pick up the phone and call their loved ones.

His first full length release, Restless—a collaboration with acclaimed Canadian musician/producer Jim Bryson—came out on April 13th.
