Investigative Film Maker Mark Christopher Lee
Born - not so recently in a Northern mill town where he studied Classical music at the renowned Huddersfield School of Music - eventually escaped to the glorious south of England and found solace in indie pop and after a short stint with morose Scots band The Jesus And Mary Chain he formed his band The Pocket Gods in 1998.
Some 25 years later, and 76 albums and 5,000 songs later, the band has gone from playing gigs to a couple of dogs and a piano tuner to obtaining 10 Guinness World Records millions of streams, bringing real change to a broken music industry.
High-profile champions along the way have been John Peel, the legendary BBC Radio 1 D.J. who loved their track Ballad Of The Peshwari Naan, and more recently Tom Robinson of 2,4,6,8 Motorway fame.
His campaign for fair royalties from Spotify led to them changing their playlist rules to allow 30-second tracks on them and also led to them increasing their subscription rates, which hopefully will be passed on to artists.
He has also given evidence to the U.K. parliament in their investigation into the economics of music streaming. He has been interviewed by the Wall Street Journal, Fox News, BBC World News, BBC 5 Live, TalkTV, ITV, London Live, The Independent, The Times, and many more.
He decided to start making films in 2019 to tell the story of his band and then to make T.V. so that he could explore his love of UFOs and the paranormal.
Check out Mark's world-first album, 100X30, which featured 100 songs all 30 seconds long—this led to the first of many Guinness World Records.
