Mark Hunt’s Story in Wood, Wire, and Willpower

Some musicians write songs. Some build guitars. Mark Hunt does both.

Raised in rural Eastern Ontario, Mark is a self-taught guitarist, songwriter, and builder who’s carved out a life in music one honest note at a time. Whether he’s crafting unique, custom guitars from reclaimed materials or pouring his heart into his own blend of blues, rock, and Americana, Mark brings quiet intensity and a working-class soul to everything he touches.

In this episode, we talk about:

• How growing up outside the city shaped his sound and spirit
• The creative process behind his new blues project
• Why he builds guitars from crates, sticks, and whatever sings when you tap it
• The joy of playing with Outskirts, a band that covers Blue Rodeo with love and respect, not imitation

This is a conversation about tone, time, and truth—from a musician who never stopped creating, no matter who was watching. If you believe in honest craft over flash, this one’s for you.
