When I met Mark he was fresh off tour with the Spin Doctors. It was early on in my career back when I had a recording studio in Port Orange. My first impression was that he knew what he was doing and I had a lot to learn from him. But most of all he had what every good engineer in this business has. A complete understanding and passion for what he does.

There is no doubt in my mind that he is a very competent leader and always dependable. I’d work with him any day.

Watching Marc at work allowed me to observe him carefully construct and execute plans to great success; but even more educational was watching him on the occasions that real life forced him to set aside those plans and improvise a new solution right on the spot.
No matter how much time and energy he put into crafting a strategy, he had the intelligence and humility to know when abandoning it was the correct move. While Marc was not overly attached to "his" ideas, he was intensely loyal to his co-workers.

Anybody working with Marc can count themselves as very lucky.

Marc worked as an Assistant Business Representative for our organization serving the Daytona Beach area. He started out as a freelancer and we recognized his leadership ability immediately. He has a keen sense of what it takes to put together a successful production and has the skill set to lead others through the process.

We wish him the best of luck and wherever he lands I am certain he will be an asset.

Marc Schwartz is a team player, a consummate professional, and an extremely valued member of any production team. I've had the pleasure of working with Marc on live events for nearly ten years now, and I would trust him implicitly in any situation. His good humored, detail oriented, and thoughtful dedication to every show is consistently and tangibly evident at every stage of production. You won't find a better person to be part of your team. Marc is the "real deal".

Production Manager and FOH Engineer at YES September 7, 2010, Dean reported directly to Marc.

I worked with Marc for 4 years at Wetlands. Marc was always on top of every aspect of production at the Wetlands while I was there. He made sure that everything from audio to lights to video was always working and that the artists who performed there were treated very well.

His mixing capabilities as an audio engineer were superb. He always made sure that the bands there sounded the best they could. Visiting engineers loved to work with him because they knew they would have an easy and successful show with Marc. There were always bands trying to take him out on the road for he was just that good.

I also learned a lot about the audio business from him as well. His knowledge of all the production disciplines was exemplary. Marc would bring a level of excellence to whatever organization utilizes his services.
