    An In Depth Visit With Mark Tesch, The Man And His Music!

    You are in for a special treat! On 11-16-25- I asked a friend of mine Ken Bevis to host a podcast episode with Mark Tesch and Bruce Herron. We gathered at the Kroot radio station studio 97.5 FM, thanks Don Ashford! Ken explored Mark’s past including picking apples, hitchhiking, Hospital Facility Manager, Montessori teacher, Crew leader at Holden Village, Habitat for humanity board member, House builder, to name a few as well a singer Song writer and strawberry picker! We also talk about the Methow acoustic music association (Mama), where we all are members, and cover the musical project Bruce and Mark are engaged in, recording some of mark’s songs. In fact, after we spend some time talking with Mark we weave several of his songs into the episode. Deep appreciation to Mark for sharing his wonderful spirit and songs, and to Bruce for recognizing the gift Mark has to offer and to Ken for taking a risk and doing a fine job of hosting the podcast! Mama meets the 1st Sunday of the month at Cove 2, across from city hall, in twisp. 3-5pm. If you don’t play an acoustic instrument, come anyway and listen! Ken Bevis is a talented musician and singer in his own right and has a couple mighty fine albums out. Subscribe to my Substack to get all my podcasts. I’m also open to receiving paid subscriptions.
