ABOUT MARK

Dr Mark Deeks

Speaker, Teacher, Performer

After more than 25 years working in the music industry, Mark has built up a really diverse client base.

From delivering a TedX talk on the mental health benefits of heavy metal, to his choir work with BBC’s Gareth Malone, conducting the Royal Northern Sinfonia, and leading workplace-based musical projects to improve staff wellbeing. From musical directing for Faye Tozer of Steps, to giving Lenny Henry piano lessons, and working with black metal bands like Winterfylleth (a band he ended up joining!). Mark has even written versions of songs by metal stars Sonata Arctica for symphony orchestra and choir.

Life is certainly varied!

Mark’s biggest passion is helping people to actively use music as a way to reduce stress and improve mental health, whether through his keynote speaking and interactive workshops, or by getting people to make playing, writing or listening to music a more regular part of their lives.

Because the ripple effect of making music part of your wellbeing toolkit can be huge for your life, for your business, for your team, for you.
