Fr Mark Baumgarten is a Catholic priest of the Archdiocese of Perth, Australia. A self-taught pianist, he worked as a musician prior to entering seminary, and the lockdown of 2020 inspired a return to songwriting. 

Fr Mark’s songs aren’t “church music” (and they certainly aren't intended for use in the liturgy). They simply aim to be the kind of music he likes to listen to – well-crafted songs that touch on deeper themes – and they cover a variety of genres including blues, ballads, gospel, rock and pop.
