Mark Wood is a world-renowned performer who rose to fame as string master and original founding member of the internationally acclaimed Trans-Siberian Orchestra, selling over 10 million records with them. As a Julliard trained recording artist, performer, producer, inventor, Emmy award-winning composer and music education advocate, Mark Wood has spent over four decades electrifying the orchestra industry – literally. Dubbed ‘The Eddie Van Halen and Jimi Hendrix of The Violin World’ by PBS, Wood is the premier electric violinist of his generation who pioneered the entire genre. He has toured and performed with some of the biggest names in music such as Celine Dion, Billy Joel, Paul McCartney, Steven Tyler, Roger Daltry, Lenny Kravitz, Kanye West, Dee Snider, and more.
A successful solo artist in his own right, Wood writes and records original music for film and television, has released seven solo albums, and tours internationally. But Mark’s true passion is music education. His groundbreaking music education program Electrify Your Symphony (EYS) celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2020 and pivoted entirely to support music teachers by providing empowering online experiences during the pandemic. With hundreds of thousands of students reached, and countless school orchestra programs saved from the chopping block because of funds raised through his efforts, Mark Wood has proven himself a man of ideas, action and results. Showing no signs of slowing down, the multifaceted visionary continues to write, perform, record, invent, and inspire. As a matter of fact, Mark Wood is just getting started.
