"The Tudors starring Jonathan Rhys Meyers

I’m very excited about The Tudors coming out on April 5! One thing that I really like about it is: my Mum likes it! She saw an advanced copy of the first 2 episodes of season 3 of The Tudors and she loved it! And I love it when my Mum likes the shows I’m in. A good friend of hers called her up and told her that I was a question on Jeopardy (as my character Reginald Pole) and she was so chuffed by that that she just had to call and tell me. Call me a Mummy’s boy, but I love it when that happens.

ahahahah

"New song almost ready for Naturally 7!

Preliminary work on Change Of Mind, my new single with producer Warne Livesey, is done. We’re now going to take the track to Naturally 7 and see if they are interested. If they are, we’ll record them some time in the next few weeks ideally, and have the track done by Spring. The song will have the feel of Justin Timberlake, Boyz 2 Men, and John Mayer.

Keep checking back for more updates!

Mark.

"The Tudors

The Tudors is premiering in the US April 5. I play Cardinal Reginald Pole, a major new character in the 3rd season. My character is enrolled by the Pope (played by Peter O’Toole) to help bring down Henry VIII (played by Jonathan Rhys Meyers) and restore the English monarchy. I had a great time working on the show in Ireland, and can’t wait to see how people respond to it. It is a quality show, and I’m very proud of it.

Check it out on Showtime starting April 5!

"Big Hockey Fan

I am a big Vancouver Canucks fan, I gotta say! I’m stoked that my team is getting close to a good playoff berth this year! I’m going for them all the way yeah!!! Luongo has a great chance to really show his stuff this year, maybe for the first time in his career, in terms of playoff performance, and I’m really excited to see him perform. I think we’re got a good shot for the first time in quite a while, and I’m eagerly anticipating the results!!

Go Nucks!!

Change Of Mind - my new single!!
I’m going into the studio to begin work on Change Of Mind, a new single that I am going to record with my producer Warne Livesey. We are hoping to get the American acapella group Naturally 7 to perform the track, and to that end we have started work on the song in hopes that what we present to them will peak their interest. I recorded a demo version of the song at home, which consists almost entirely of acapella parts, with only a fender Rhodes part to back it up. We’re planning to create a sampled drum track to support the vocal percussion we plan to have, hopefully coming from the amazing vocal percussionist in the Naturally 7 group. Just something simple, a kick drum and some finger snaps, maybe some hand claps and a snare. I’m taking over the parts of the song, so that we can dissect what I did and write out the backing vocal parts for Naturally 7. Plus we plan to record the final lead vocal and electric piano parts, so we can send Naturally 7 the finished track that they will sing with.

I’m on the ferry on the way to Warne’s. I love this part. I always go out on the front deck, no matter how bad the Pacific Northwest weather is, because I love the pilgrimage to the studio. Making this journey out of the city is a unique privilege for me, because I know what awaits me on the other side – making music! YEAH!!"

"

It is so beautiful to really try someone else on, to see what it is like to be them. I was interacting with someone, and they were really emotional, really upset about something. And I couldn’t really understand what it was that they were upset about. We were talking, and they wanted my help, but I couldn’t relate to what they were saying, it just didn’t make sense to me.

Then I stopped, and took in what they were saying, and really felt what it would feel like in my body if I was saying those things. If it were me, in exactly the same position, what would have to be true for me if I was saying what they were saying. And when I did that, I got a whole new perspective on what was going on for them, and I was really able to help them to move through the limitation they were experiencing, because I could then cross reference what I experience against what they were experiencing, and look at it more rationally.

This is not to say that this is a comfortable choice necessarily. In fact, when I chose to do try this person on, I suddenly didn’t really know what to do or what was going to happen in the conversation. I wasn’t really sure if I was going to be able to help!

But then again, the fact that is wasn’t the most comfortable choice implied that it might be the most valuable one.
