Biography

After years of listening and loving live music, we are now lucky enough to have the opportunity to work with artists we love and people in the music business we admire and respect. Here are some thoughts from a few of them about our work:



"In the music business, most people are all talk and no action. M & S make things happen and get the job done! What a breath of fresh air! "


-Josh Zee, The Mother Truckers

"M & S Artist Development leaves no stone unturned when exploring goal-reaching avenues! Mark and Sarah always bring a fresh, and enthusiastic approach to all that they do, whether it's merchandising, networking or internet solutions. I have found their participation in our career to have imeasurable value, and would like to say "Thanks!", and that I wholeheartedly reccomend putting them to work for you!"


-Teal Collins
The Mother Truckers

“Mark and Sarah bring passion and enthusiasm to every project they’re involved with! Professional, well organized and in it for the right reasons...they put the “art” back into artist development.”

-Shilah Morrow
President/founder Sin City Social Club
Board Member Americana Music Association

"Musicians spend years developing great ideas and skills but struggle to make time to pursue new opportunities. Artist development firms look for devoted musicians that need help connecting with new and supportive audiences. Mark and Sarah are great in this respect. They are true music warriors; selfishly supporting our ideas by investing their own creative time and energy. We are truly excited to be working with them."

-Grammy winners Joel Guzman and Sarah Fox

“Mark and Sarah Gonzales are driven by their passion for the music business and the desire to “get it right” . I’m very proud to have them as not only business associates, but as friends too. They’ve been an immense help to me.”

-Greg Roberts

"Mark and Sarah are the artist's heroes, really. They are the driving force behind my promotions, marketing, and business concepts. Everybody wants their own Mark and Sarah!"

-Jane Bond of The Jane Bond Band


"With out people like Mark and Sarah my photos would languish in the nether world, unseen by the very people who I need to see them. Their enthusiasum is infectious and their energy seems to be boundless. Its not about, can we get this done? Its, about how fast it gets done."
