About Mark Pelli
In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail.
One of the earliest musical memories I have is my dad playing guitar for me.
I also remember playing songs I wrote on the piano for my family.
My uncle Chuck is a professional guitar player and I remember going to see him perform.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular?
D'Angelo, Voodoo
Sam Cooke, The Best of Sam Cooke
Stevie Wonder, Songs in the Key of Life
Stevie is my favorite artist of all time.
RIP D'Angelo--Voodoo is a masterpiece.
Sam Cooke has had a big influence on me vocally.

“Pack It Up”
This one is a special one for me because it just wrote itself so quickly.
It's about someone telling you it's time to leave and pack up your shit lol.
The vibe is very retro soul.. vintage throwback sorta feeling to it.
I'm proud of this one
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far?
Most people know me for being the co-founder and guitar player in MAGIC! I wrote the hook of the song "Rude"... why you gotta be so Rude.
That took me on a journey touring around the world many times and now I'm happy to share my solo music.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band?
I've been touring for many years but recently it's mostly been with MAGIC! I'm still very grateful to have these performing opportunities but I'd love to grow my solo project to the point where I can tour this music as well.
I perform in LA often
