Mark Lettieri

 
Mark Lettieri is a Texas-based professional guitarist, producer and songwriter. He grew up in Northern California (Menlo Park, to be exact), and began playing guitar as a young lad. In middle school, grunge was still cool, but Lettieri and his friends thought guys like Hendrix were cooler. Thus began his obsession with the guitar (and also around this time, track and field, but music didn't cause as many hamstring injuries). High school found him digesting everything from Van Halen to Steely Dan, and the bands he played in tried their best to get gigs at the local teen center. He moved to Texas to attend Texas Christian University, where he competed on the track team (long jump) and earned a B.S. in Advertising/Public Relations, of all things. He also played in some super sweet collegiate-style jam-rock groups, and still managed to make it to class. Go Frogs. After graduation in the spring of 2005, he began pursuing his music career. 
 
The Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex has allowed Lettieri to establish a solid foundation as both a session musician and bandleader. Proficient in a multitude of styles, he records and performs in virtually every genre from jazz to country, hard rock to gospel and is a "first call" guitarist for multiple artists and producers, both local and national. He tries his best to show up on time with gear that works.  
 
Always striving to create new sounds, Lettieri is involved with many projects, such asSnarky Puppy, a jazz-funk-dance ensemble signed to Ropadope Digital, that tours regularly throughout the U.S. and Europe. Since the summer of 2012, he has been performing both in the States and abroad with soul queen Erykah Badu. Locally, Lettieri recently began a new rawk-n-roll studio project, the Black & Blue, with former Hidden Beach Recording artist, Keite Young, and you can also find him playing world-class hip hop with RC & the Gritz, and far-out fusion with the Funky Knuckles. 
 
As a producer, he often works with Team SKP, a production and songwriting ensemble lead by Grammy-nominated, Platinum-selling producer S1 (Symbolyc One), specializing in hip hop, R&B and pop.  
 
If you own a television, you can watch him handling acoustic and electric guitar duties with the Celebration Band on the Daystar Television Network's morning show, "Celebration," three days a week, broadcasting live from Bedford, TX. Call your local cable provider for more info. 
 
In the fall of 2011, Lettieri released "Knows," an 8-song all-instrumental record of his own compositions, featuring some of Dallas' finest musicians (click the "Knows" link on the homepage for more info). 
 
He lives in Fort Worth, TX with his wife Shalyn, and their cats, Wah Wah S. Pedal, Esq.,and Cioppino.

When I met Mark I was blown away at his grasp of jazz,soul and gospel music. There was nothing he couldn't play. From the time I met him until now he became and has been THE go-to guitarist in the metroplex and one of the premeire guitarists in the nation. If you need guitar, you absolutely must have Mark on your project!!
