A quick hello to all the new people on the mailing list - we've collated all 3 lists (mark's, sonaBLAST!'s and the one on www.markgeary.com) so you'll always be right up to date with all the news. If you've been included by mistake, feel free to drop me an email (donal@markgeary.com) or follow the instructions at the bottom of this email.
New dates for America and Ireland are available below... Mark will be at SxSW this year which is a great opportunity and has seen The Frames, Mundy, Josh Ritter, Relish, Woodstar, The Revs, Colm Quearney, and The Redneck Manifesto all perform in the last couple of years...
The Starbucks HEAR Music Compilation should be in stores from today, Thursday March 4. Suzanne will be included on the Starbucks "Hear Music" compilation in March, effectively meaning that the song will be played throughout the month in every Starbucks in the world. Enjoy!!
