What They’re Saying
"The production on 0086 is fantastic! The song structures are unpredictable and satisfying, transcending pop while balancing pop song arrangements with sonic shapeshifting, with just the proper dose of madness."
— Keith Strickland of the B52s
"Mark’s recipe for music: funk, classical, industrial and everything in between mixed with raw emotion and some very cool vocal treatments, make this a truly unique and wonderful record. Honored to have worked on it."
- Pete Keppler (Live sound engineer with David Byrne and Patti Smith. Mastering on 0086)
"There’s no viable reason I can conjure that would explain why Mark Lesseraux isn’t more of a household name at this point in time. The lyrics are witty, his melodies are infectious ... I could go on and on, but the music speaks for itself; pick up a copy of ‘Transmissions (2003 - 2012)’ and experience for yourself the talents of a true hidden gem in popular songwriting."
- Adam Costa (DOA Magazine)
"Mark's unique ability to distill concept and emotion into lyric and melody remains unparalleled in my experience. He seems to create from a place free of restriction, yet somehow crafts these concise songs that can go from clever and cheeky to devastating and profound within a single verse."
- Ryan Waters (Guitarist with New Power Generation, Heart, Sade)
"One of the best songwriters I know personally."
— Darrell McNeill (Director of Operations for The Black Rock Coalition)
"Lesseraux can sing his ass off and he isn't afraid to do it."”
—Joe Tangari (Pitchfork Media)
