Mark Etheredge is a Los Angeles, California based singer-songwriter and keyboardist. Etheredge writes and performs a style of adult contemporary music with elements of pop, soft rock, and smooth jazz. ==Biography and early career== Mark Etheredge was born and raised in the Bay Area. He started improvising on piano when he was five years old, but never ended up taking lessons, choosing instead to teach himself entirely. Etheredge has stated that he considers his love of the Beatles and the songwriting team of John Lennon and Paul McCartney in particular as his primary inspiration for wanting to become a professional songwriter and musician. Etheredge released his first recording in 1990, an exclusively instrumental New Age album called ''As Dawn''. Mark spent a significant amount of time playing music for the Metropolitan Community Church of San Francisco, where he met friend and collaborator Michael Cronin, who would later appear as a lyricist on the album ''Change Coming''.〔 While a musician at the church, Mark also taught himself to play the drums.〔 Though he never stopped writing and performing music, Etheredge primarily took on a successful career in software development, in which he worked for 21 years in software before deciding to return to music full-time in 2011. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mark Etheredge」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
