Over the next few weeks the 2012 Cariboo Idol contestants will be spotlighted.
Mark Gilman
Cariboo Idol contestant Mark Gilman, who resides in 150 Mile House, has been singing since his teens and has also written numerous songs over the years.
What influences him is "the energy which is the universe that is a never ending song to communicate that energy to my fellow beings in the wonder of the great mystery of creation."
Gilman built the guitar he plays and also enjoys playing the harmonica, bass and slide-steel guitar.
This is the fifth in a series of 10.
