Mark Goodwin, a British musician and piano salesman, has found fame across the web and on terrestrial TV thanks to his unique brand of music-making.
According to the Oldham Advertiser:
Mark Goodwin recorded a song in his bedroom using his hands, mouth and nose and then posted it online on his own internet blog.
Within a few weeks the 27-year-old was astonished to be contacted by a television producer who wanted to screen it on a new Channel 4 show.
And that was just the start, as Mark has since gone on to make three TV appearances inside a week.
Mark holds a music degree from Leeds University but he certainly didn’t play his home-made instrument during his time there. “There wasn’t a lot of time to play the nose trumpet on the classical music course I did, but I kept it up in my spare time and learned how to hold a tune eventually,” he said.
Mark’s video was viewed on YouTube over 2500 times in 12 hours.
It’s proof that if you’re creative, resourceful, a bit tech savvy, and have a smidgeon of luck, you can rise from obscurity and receive your fifteen minutes of fame, starting on the Net and maybe moving on to traditional media.
Well done Mark!
