Biography

With 16 recorded projects to his credit including multiple #1 songs, the prolific Gospel songwriter and performer Mark Bishop returns with A Different Light.
Known as an artist who honestly portrays himself and his faith through self-authored work, Bishop shares new stories in this 11 song collection.
The result is an eclectic wide-ranging album that focuses on themes of faith and refuge, struggle and growth.
The first single, “The Refrigerator Door” releases December 15th. It’s a quirky title, but the nostalgic song gives a mental picture of how God’s love can be found in the smallest things in life, and that He speaks to us in unconventional ways.
Other Highlights:
“God is Powerful” is just that, powerful both in message and music with its penetrating energy, choir-backed chorus and affirming lyrics.
“Fly, Fly Away Little Birdy is simple, folky and slightly bittersweet. This one is for the parents who feel “I miss when you were little, but I’m proud of who you are growing up to be.”
“I’m In Good Hands” is a tender song that provides the same sweet comfort as a reading of Psalm 23.
Together with producer Jeff Collins, Mark allows the music he composes to fit the message of the song. By applying the varied colors of his past musical efforts, Bishop achieves a vibrant new work. He aptly displays his God-given ability to show listeners a timeless message in A Different Light.
