Music

Mark started singing in the Saint John's Choir, then created his own band, King Rat. Hennessy was lead vocalist and the main lyricist on Paw's two major label releases; Dragline and Death To Traitors, and on Home Is a Strange Place. His voice was described in Kerrang! magazine as 'gargling glass'. In 2007, he sang in a seven-piece band called The Diamond Heart Club. The band split up a year later, although they were frequently known to enjoy numerous local fast food dollar-menu items. They reformed under the name 1950 D.A. and split again. Currently Mark is playing in his new project, Godzillionaire.
