MARK HALE Vocalist

Mark has been working with us since the beginning of my horror clothing journey in 2020 with the original brand name of ROYAL TEN CLOTHING.

He always dons a t shirt with one of my designs at the shows he performs at,

is a true gent and pushes this brand like his life depends on it!!!!

 

Here's some info on this amazing vocalist..

     

Mark Hale started his time out as a singer at the ripe young age of 27!  After working in a few start up projects, he finally managed to be part of an Iron Maiden Tribute band in 2018. Unfortunately, this didn't work out, but would give Mark the opportunity to work with a well established covers band called Resurrection, who he joined in Sep 2018. 

It would be with this band, he would, along with Chris Weatherall, form Dead Demons in January of 2020. By March, Dead Demons had 4 songs ready to be recorded in Supanova Studios in Doncaster. When COVID hit, everything ground to a halt. And even with the release of the EP, Mortuus Daemonia, Dead Demons would spend the next 3 years fighting tooth and nail to make progress in the music scene.

In 2023, after supporting larger bands such as Wolfsbane, Geoff Tate and The Treatment, Dead Demons released the 2^nd EP, Trial By Fire in October of 2023. This would then spark Dead Demons to go on and play several festivals, such as  SOSfest, Savfest and Call of the Wild, as well as going on tour with The Deadly Romantics. Sadly, this would be the crescendo of Dead Demons for Mark, because in July 2024, he left Dead Demons due to scheduling clashes, and to pursue other projects.

Meanwhile, in early 2023, Mark approached NWOBHM legend, Tracey Abbott, who had advertised for a singer to set up a band to honour the music of Witchfynde. This band would later dissolve, and become the newest line up of Overdrive, the NWOBHM band from Grantham. Along with the new line up, the latest album, Resurrection, was released in August of 2024, with the release done at Mearfest.

Thanks to the new circles he found himself in, Mark has been given the honour of working with another NWOBHM legend, Kev Riddles, where he now fronts the bands Tytan and Kev Riddles' Baphomet, who were formed to play the1^st Angel Witch album, to which Kev was a founding creator for. 

With these 3 bands, Mark is hoping to continue his journey in music, and couldn't think of any better brand to have on his chest, than Poison Valley Scarewear!
