Since then Mark has been performing at various open mic venues across London throughout 2018/2019.He very recently MC'ed a creative arts evening to raise money for an Autism Charity based in London called Autism Hub Islington"An Autistic Dave Grohl" (Sam Rhodes Comedy Roadshow)On Friday 4 October, Mark will be joined by headline act Aaron Simmonds.
