Who is Mark Goffeney

1. He's Good


2. He's a Great Guitarist


3. He Plays With His FEET!

Mark Goffeney is a native San Diegan whose talent and ambition have helped him to achieve ongoing success as a performer, speaker and television personality. Mark has been recognized for his work internationally and was nominated for an Emmy award in 1998 for his principal role in the Fox Network commercial, "Feet". Music was a big part of Mark's family and he remembers being deeply touched by it at a very early age. By age nine, Mark was attempting to create his own music, but choosing an instrument would prove to be a challenge.

For a while he played trombone in the school band, and then his dad brought home an old guitar he had found on a jobsite. Mark asked his neighborhood friend and mentor, a real guitar player, for instruction. Ironically, the guitar had only four strings.

Mark was learning to play guitar and bass at the same time! With his friend's help, Mark soon developed his own technique. He would lay the guitar on the ground, supporting the neck with whatever he could get his feet on. He would strum with his left...foot... and make chords with his right.

By early adulthood, Mark was committed to a full-fledged career in music and by the end of the nineties; Mark had successfully completed his first CD, titled "Big Toe".

Sponsored by PSB Records and produced by Steve Dudas (known for his work with Aerosmith and Ozzy Osbourne).

This CD is a collection of Mark Goffeney's greatest, original songs and was also featured in the San Diego Reader's "Best of the Best". Mark is able to provide great entertainment to any crowd, as he did recently on ARD TV in Germany where he opened for Lee Ann Rimes on the European hit show, "Lippe Blofft". The station forwarded over 100 emails received the day following the show from viewers wanting Mark's CD. To date, CDs have been mailed to fans in Germany, Switzerland and Austria.
