INTERNATIONAL baritone singer and presenter Mark Llewelyn Evans is teaming up with legendary Warner record producer and seven times classical Brit-Award winner and Grammy nominee Nick Patrick to create an album of the nation's love songs.
And Argus readers have been invited to choose one of the tracks for this album for the chance to attend the album launch concert, which will be hosted by Rob Brydon.
We are also inviting you to suggest a title for the album for the opportunity to win a VIP package which includes four tickets for the launch concert on July 17 at the Lyric Theatre, Carmarthen, two signed albums plus four backstage passes to meet Mark Llewelyn Evans and Rob Brydon. Mark is fast building a reputation as a major international star.
His debut album Let the Light In topped the charts last year as did his charity single with the Band of the Welsh Guards for the Welsh Guards Afghanistan Appeal. He has worked alongside many major names in the entertainment world from Katherine Jenkins and Alfie Boe to Dame Kiri Te Kanawa.
He performed the role of Don Giovanni in the latest Guy Ritchie blockbuster Sherlock Holmes II - A Game of Shadows. Recording started this week on the album of love songs at Peter Gabriel's Real World Studios in Bath. Your favourite love song will feature on the album with the likes of Sting's Fields of Gold, Neil Diamond's Play Me and Gordon Ligthfoot's If You Could Read My Mind.
The launch will be in the Lyric Theatre, Carmarthen which holds a special place in Mark's heart as it was the theatre his parents rescued from being demolished. They ran it for 20 years before it was taken over by the council.
