MARK SAMPSON - THE LONDON EYE
Mark Sampson was a regular at the Six Bells Folk and Blues Club, Chiddingly, and at The White Horse, Bodle Street (both East Sussex). His compositions 'Seagulls' and 'The Battle of Lewes 1264' appeared live on CDs recorded at the respective venues. He appeared with local musicians Terry Lees, Chris Mansell, Dave Dyke, and Big Jim of The Weedkillers.
Since relocating to London in the late 90's, to read History at Goldsmith's College, he has appeared on 'The New Cross: An Angular Sampler' with 'The London Eye'.
He plays at venues in the New Cross area, including at The Paradise Bar, where he has appeared with Christy, Drezone, Ceri James, Jack Knife Kid, The Swear, Luxembourg, The Long Blondes and others.
Mark released the single 'Seagulls' in 2005 about his beloved Brighton Football Club. It was backed with 'Brighthelmstone', his composition about the city of Brighton and Hove.
For the future, Mark aims to play regular gigs around London and further afield, record another single and ultimately a full length album.
His style is acoustic, his lyrics include topical commentary while never losing sight of the past.
