Having gained the reputation of being one of Britain’s finest Blues musicians, Mark’s guitar playing has been described as simply breathtaking!
After playing here, this is in no doubt!
Nick Dow, presenter of Lancashire Bluenotes on BBC Radio Lancashire, holds this band in high regard and they performed on the British Stage during the 2009 Colne Festival (BBC Radio Lancashire Night). True Blues Club .

The Mark Thornley Band were the last band to take up position centre stage lifting off with a blistering powerhouse blues/rock set of three hand picked pieces of musical mastery which reminded everyone what a consistently dynamic outfit they have been over the last few years. Mark Thornley is the archetypal all action ‘guitar’ hero who somehow pushes his performance well beyond the known boundaries, becoming a musical demigod locked in mortal combat slaying his demons with every known guitar convulsion and sustained string bend in the book and a many that are not! A truly stunning performance from this power trio which was a befitting grand finale to a fabulous evening of entertainment from the ‘creme de la creme’ of blues acts in the North of England.
