Mark Evitts is an American composer, string arranger and multi-instrumentalist. Most notably, Evitts received two GRAMMY certificates for String Arranging, as well as violin and viola for participating on the GRAMMY winning, RIAA Gold selling Joey+Rory album, Hymns. His string arrangements and recordings were also featured in NBC's SMASH Emmy nominated song, "Voice In A Dream" and Train's New Year's Eve Time Square performance of John Lennon's "Imagine" in 2013. Years of learning to play multiple instruments has allowed Mark the opportunity to conceive sounds from a raw provenance for his own projects and provide samples of these authentic sounds to creative music software and virtual instrument companies like Output's Arcade.

Mark is a voting member of the Recording Academy (GRAMMYs), a member of the American Society of Music Arrangers and Composers (ASMAC), a member of the Society of Composers and Lyricists (SCL), as well as a member of the American String Teachers Association (ASTA).
