Mark Bodino began playing guitar at age 13 and piano at age
18. He also noticed he enjoyed the expressiveness of singing at age 18. Since
that time, he has described his love for music as an obsession. His
performances have been well-received in a variety of settings - ranging from
pubs, bookstores, and coffee houses.  His
classical guitar and original projects have been well received and sold around
the world.  Some classical guitar
selections are solo instrumental while others include multiple layers of nylon,
acoustic, and 12 string guitar along with additional  instrumentation expand the sound while
allowing the listener to experience the songs in a new and unique way. I
wanted to create something of a 'pop' classical recording for everyone to gauge
with.

Broken Darling

Broken Darling consists of two guitars, male and female vocals, bass and drums, performing original material. Broken Darling can be described as "deeper than most
rock; harder than most folk". From track to track the
instrumentation is searing, light and expressive, tasteful and melodic. The
best description their overall sound may be a melding of the past
– Fleetwood Mac meets The Eagles or Neil Young jams with Chris Isaak. The sound is classic with an added “pop
texture” of the present. “We try to bring the listener to another
place, as if leading them down a dark corridor or toward something typically peripheral or unveiled”. Whether fragmented or continuous, lyrics are full of imagery and color,
influencing the listener beyond the medium of just sound. Performances have been well received in a variety of settings. Tracks are
available with or without vocals.
