Mark Barrios on SoundBetter

Hi, I am a "Smooth Jazz" recording artist. I have two cd's that received a good amount of airplay. I had five songs in the top 50 Smooth jazz radio charts including one, "Bouncin' Back" that went to number four.

I specialize in that Carlos Santana lead tone and style. I can also add Flamenco Jazz nylon string guitar similar to Ottmar Liebert, Jesse Cook, and Marc Antoine. I'm also very efficient in Funk scratch rhythm guitar styles.

I'd love to hear about your project. Click the 'Contact' button above to get in touch.

    Love ‘Spanish Morning’ on a frigid Minnesota morning, thank you!

    Hey, Mark. Just discovered you on this Sunday morning in Vancouver, listening to my Acoustic Alchemy station on Pandora. By the time "Spanish Morning" was ending I was a fan. The Carlos S. influence is obviously unmistakable in that cut, but no one can remind a listener of Santana if they don't have the chops. Love your subtle mellower tone too. Like someone else said, I wish you had more albums. Do you play live anywhere? Maybe I can see you play on my travels.
