Vocalist experimenting with making his own music

Born and raised in Greenville, SC, singer-songwriter Mark Webb Jr carries a tender voice and unique timbre that embodies real Americana. Taking inspiration from life experiences, overheard conversations and current events, Mark writes and curates songs that echo the cuts, bruises and blossoms of life.

Signing to Gold Ship Records, Mark released his debut EP, Home, on July 8th. He quickly made No Depression's list of "Rookies on the Rise" for 2016. Mark most recently celebrated the release of his two newest singles, “Just One Kiss,” and “Moonlit Road,” to kick off the new year in 2021. Prior to, we celebrated the release of his sophomore album, ‘Smoke Wine Banter,’  in 2019. 

Mark has shared the stage with musicians such as American Aquarium, Turnpike Troubadours, Jill Andrews, Justin Townes Earle, and more. He’s also had the pleasure of co-writing with Ted Russell Kamp and Dashboard Confessional’s Chris Carrabba. His collaboration with Ted Russell Kamp, “Heart Under Pressure,” recently made Rolling Stone’s “10 Best Country and Americana Songs to Hear Now.” “Open My Eyes,” Mark’s collaboration with Dashboard Confessional, was released early 2018 on their album ‘Crooked Shadows,’ and debuted on the Billboard 200 chart and made the top 5 on both Top Rock Albums and Top Alternative Albums.

Eqo was founded in 2013 by Daisy Bellis and Kai Vaughn and formed with the addition of Kity Faya. The band gained notoriety for playing acoustic shows everywhere around Atlanta, from reputable venues, open mics, to nonconventional settings like EDM parties friends were hosting.

With Kity Faya, they would go onto record and independently release their debut album, 'Ananta' which received praise from numerous indie publications, as well as recognition from local press. Eqo released two music videos and continued to make a name for themselves through festivals and Dragon*con 2015. All of the progress, however, came to a sudden halt due to personal conflict, creative strains, and rotating lineups. Eqo officially disbanded in 2016.

In the summer of 2016, Kity Faya relocated to LA in pursuit of other opportunities. And on New Years of 2017, Daisy and Kai decided to reform Eqo with the addition of Parron Emily as the 2nd lead vocalist.

Eqo is currently setting their sights on working diligently to establish themselves, write new material, and breathe new life into something that once held meaning in the hearts of many. In 2017, growth, discovery, and happiness will be the primary focus, through touring and laying down the foundation for their sophomore album.
