Critically Acclaimed Songwriter, Mark Elliot Brings His Own Sound To The Table In His New Single “Hear Your Voice”

“Sometimes you just need to hear someone’s voice right next to you, not over the phone, not in some recording, and not in your dreams, but there, in the room. “Hear Your Voice,” tells the story of reconnecting with an old lover over the phone and how badly you want that conversation to continue in person.”  – Mark Elliott

In his new single “Hear Your Voice”, Mark Elliott tells a heart-breaking story of rekindling a connection with a lost love. The instant classic is melancholic yet catchy as Elliot tells the story of answering the phone to his lover’s call after what seems to be years of disconnect. Elliott’s authentic country tone is brought to life through a mix of twangy guitars, expressive percussion, and rich vocals. And although this song is surely a country hit, fitting in with much of what’s on the charts right now, Elliott brings his own unique sound to the table.

Mark Elliott wrote and recorded “Hear Your Voice” with producer Gabe Burdulis, a young, talented guitarist. Cut at Trace Horse Sound, this acoustic rock track builds around a hypnotic open-tuned acoustic guitar and adds some of Nashville’s best young-gun studio musicians!

While still a teen, he caught the attention of legendary songwriter Tom Paxton, who lit a fire in the young writer, leading him to Nashville and a publishing deal with Cherry Lane Music. Today he is a well-published and critically acclaimed songwriter, having won distinguished songwriting awards, including the Kerrville New Folk Award.

He has written for many top publishing houses; Bluewater Music, Maypop Music group, and Sony Music/ATV leading to both independent and major-label artists recording his songs. Billboard Magazine called Mark’s Neal McCoy hit, Every Man for Himself, “a song with rare lyrical and musical edge and the best cut on the album.” Many other industry publications from the likes of Martin Guitar Company’s Sounding Board Magazine and the UK’s Maverick Magazine have heralded his work. Music Row Magazine said of Mark’s, “Almost too good” and “I’ll bet he’s a killer to hear live.”

Alongside an active touring schedule with his band, Runaway Home, Mark has a new solo EP due out summer 2020, with the first single, Craziest Thing, dropping April 17th.

Mark also writes books, blogs, and essays. Kirkus Reviews said of Mark’s first full-length book, The Sons of Starmount: Memoir of a Ten-Year-Old Boy, “Cheerful, more thoughtful than most reminiscences, and quite enjoyable.”
