Mark O'Dell and Andrew Ascosi have been performing together since the summer of 2002 in the Baltimore, Annapolis, Washington D.C. area... and beyond! They have performed at every type of venue, from smokey dive-bars, night clubs and irish pubs, to private parties, corporate events and grand ballrooms. They have performed not only as an acoustic duo, but as members of more than a few electric rock and blues bands... that achived varrious levels of local success. However, throughout the many band evolutions and disintrigrations, Mark and Andrew’s complementing musical influences, playing styles, vocal harmonies and close working and personal friendship has been able to keep them happily performing together as an acoustic duo... the foundationof a musical friendship that will certainly endure. Look for more recordings, projects and special performances from Mark O'Dell & Andrew Ascosi in the years to come! Mark O'Dell: Guitar, Bass, Steel Drum, Percussion, Vocals |
