Textures in the Realm of Pure Color

Written by Mark Vickness and Carson Moore.

  • It's a gorgeous collection which somehow feels rooted in the earth, as if bluegrass, indian classical music, african cross rhythms, new age acoustic ambiences, classical chamber music, jazz, once all blended, create some perfect special sauce which might feel like home to most of the population of the earth.

    — British Fingerstyle phenom, Jon Gomm

  • Mark is a visionary musician who creates a beautiful form of contemporary chamber music. For his new recording he has assembled a masterful, soulful ensemble who bring his tone paintings to life. It will take you on a journey!

    — Legendary bassist/composer, Michael Manring

  • Beautifully played, recorded, and mixed. There's enough instrumentation for interesting orchestrational shifts to occur, and the music doesn't overreach, allowing for flawless, graceful delivery and total clarity of intent. I know these songs will bring joy and inspiration to many people out there!

    — Acoustic Double-Neck master, Ian Ethan Case

  • It is so nice to listen to the new MVI record. Really expansive and yet inviting, a whole sonic world to explore! You have to check it out!

    — Fingerstyle pioneer, Trevor Gordon Hall

  • On Interconnected, Vickness has pushed the limits of acoustic fusion, blending many, seemingly unrelated, styles together to create something new and exciting. The song craft and musicianship is top notch and the album is one that reveals more to the listener with each spin.

    — General Jabbo, Blinded By Sound

  • Mark Vickness Interconnected harnesses the power of a wide range of backgrounds, styles, and instruments and shows how glorious harmony can be created when we all work together.

    These are masterful players creating at a peak level. The degree of skill and craftsmanship, as well as unrestrained creativity, is truly impressive. This record is the antidote for the age of vitriol and divisiveness we live in at the moment. A meditative mantra of inclusiveness.
