SheilaMark Band This is a Hammond organ driven, female fronted band. We do Blues, Rock, Zydeco and many popular songs of the day and yesterday.
We play and sing great songs from many eras that include the 30, 40, 50's and also some songs from Rock, Blues, Jazz and Zydeco. We have wonderful performers in this band. Mark Hamza is the accordion player and Mark, the B3 organist, plays a modified Hammond organ that allows him to play all the bass lines with his feet. Mark has performed in New Orleans as well and is really great on Zydeco accordion and has composed his own song called "Zydeco Cheesecake" Our singer, Sheila Stratton-Hamza, spotlights the great female Blues and Rock singers from the 60's to the present. She has a unique and huge sound. The SheilaMark Band is able to play different musical styles, so we can satisfy a diverse audience. We also play a lively mix of tunes to get the audience and dancing.
The Apple Strudel Gang is a great German Ompah band with strong performances by Mark on accordion, Sheila on vocals and boomba, clarinet, trombone, drums and trumpet. They perform wonderful songs of the present day German genre and great tunes from the Rheingold orchestra song book from pre World War II Germany. Many performances are for biergartens and Oktoberfest in both a festival and smaller setting. Mark and Sheila also do a duo of German music for smaller venues.
