WHO ARE YOU?
“theholeofmark” is an artist from London and his real name is Mark Hole, a singer song writer known for these three works, “F-Sharp”, “Always Follow Your Heart” and “People Change” which you can listen to now on all platforms.
As a result, he was lucky enough to supported Tori Amos on her European Tour which included performing at The Royal Albert Hall!!!
He then signed to Downtown Music Publishing. Did the rounds, writing with the likes of Rock Mafia, Duke Dumont, Red One, Amanda Ghost and Jakwob to name but a few. He featured vocals on Kraak and Smaak’s single “All I Want Is You”, when he once called himself “KEYHOLE”. See what you think…
“All I Want Is You” was nominated for Best Indie Dance Track at the International Dance Music Awards. Then he co-wrote "Constellation Prize" for Robin Bengtsson which went double platinum and reached number 2 in the Swedish charts. All was going well, till one day… his hole world changed.
So I’ve just found out I have that frustrating topic, where by the public often swings between treating a serious medical condition as a cute internet trend dismissing it as an over diagnosed excuse. A.D.H.D. now it all makes sense. But oh my god, ADHD Grief and ADHD Paralysis are literally ruining my life. It’s no joke.
“ATTENTION DEFICIT HYPERACTIVITY DISORDER”.
FUCK YOU!!!!!!!!
MY MISSION IS…
Mainly to go through this process and become my best self, share what I find, to help other ADHD people that also struggle. By sharing my views in “The Secret Hole” and to inform, the “None ADHD Norms” of how best to deal with us, it’s not easy I realise, but it is easier than having it, trust me. All you got do is be honest and not ghost (especially if you were really good friends with them). But most importantly, be kind. ADHD is a disability in my view, not everyone thinks so but I would disagree and so would the law would in some cases. Evidence in the fact, that approximately 26% of adult prisoners have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder which is about 5 to 10 times higher than the rate in the general public. Youths in detention, it's even higher at 30%. ADHD affects brain development, executive function, and daily behaviour including focus, impulsive control, and emotional regulation… did you know that ADHD people share several overlapping behavioural cognitive and emotional symptoms to that of someone with PTSD? That's why EMDR therapy works well on us too. I never used to think so, but ultimately we are stigmatised in society for something that we can't help and it feels very disheartening. I would rather not have it for the most part, but when it’s good, it’s the best. That’s why I’m trying to get to the SUPERPOWER part. So that I can…
Be creative everyday, to make and release music for a living. It’s all I have ever wanted. I will get there.
I’m still learning all about it but what I’ve found so far is absolutely fascinating and so, while we go through this process, may I start by saying thank you for coming.
I’m currently writing and recording my next album “I.O.U. (A SCATTERED MIND)” which you can hear NOW in my “Patreon” if you are willing to…
Stand by me with a £5 monthly subscription fee. That’s like, a large latte a month. Here’s a tip for you, did you know that if you register your email with Waitrose they give you a “My Waitrose” card with a barcode that gives you a free coffee every day from any of their stores, you’re welcome. So I have literally just saved you £50 a month and all I'm asking for is £5.
If you like what I do and want to help me continue, this is the best way. I'm currently uploading a track a day for the I.O.U. (A SCATTERED MIND) album which is literally going to be huge, I think it's gonna end up being about 40 or 50 tracks maybe more. Most of them are finished. Some still need recording but I will be sharing my process in my Patreon. Furthermore, whoever joins will be invited to Patreon only gigs. Live recordings, et cetera. It's gonna be sick.
I'll never forget what my sister-in-law said to me once.
“When you sing Mark, every annoying and terrible thing you've ever done vanishes into thin air”
So I better sing my ass hole off then…x

Mark is known for his powerful vocals and unique writing style. He tattoos the titles of his works on his body.
and then I got a tattoo for my next album that I never made “I.O.U”
All because I wrote this song at the beginning of when I really started to fall apart.
