Mark Templeton was the one of three children of the late
Eugene & Mildred Templeton.
Growing up in a musical family, Mark quickly learned to play and
sing the "Blue Ridge Mountain Way". Mark began his professional
career in 1969 where he performed on banjo at a local school for a
cakewalk. On the way home he said "Wow! Dad, I think we could
start a band". Hence came the first Templeton family bluegrass
band "The Stony Run Troubadours". 35 years, 32 albums and many
miles throughout North America later Mark is still entertaining
crowds the same way his daddy taught him. All these years his #1
goal has been to serve his Lord Jesus Christ in all that he does. Mark
travels and performs at Churches, Bluegrass Festivals and any other
venue that showcases bluegrass & Gospel music. He is an
accomplished banjo, guitar, bass & piano player and has his own
recording studio. He has recorded under QCA records, Sonshine
records, ACA records and is  currently recording under Hillside
records. Mark is married to Mandy and has a daughter, Kelsey.
When you attend one of Mark's concerts you will be sure to be
entertained & blessed plus you will hear the Blue Ridge mountains
calling you...
