Biography

John Mark Nelson went from being anointed a "wunderkind" by NPR in his teens to dropped by his label in a dizzyingly short timespan. But now a few years down the road, and fresh off taking an opportunity to work with Grammy award winning songwriter Dan Wilson in Los Angeles, Nelson finds himself creatively reinvigorated. He attributes much of his growth in both songwriting and production to his experience at Wilson’s studio working with new artists every day, including the likes of Mitski, Leon Bridges, and Taylor Swift, for whom Nelson served as an engineer on tracks for the re-recorded Red LP. The songs on his latest EP Hideaway were equally inspired by and conceived within the competing forces of isolated pandemic living and his experience working at one of the most currently relevant production studios in the world. Hideaway adds to Nelson’s prolific streak of late, joining the recently released ambient LPs Signa One and Signa Two, collections of instrumental compositions inspired by the natural world that he plans to add to as an ongoing series.
