"Blue-eyed soul singer" and songwriter, and voice-over artist Mark Campbell, was born in the 1950s in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. Raised in New Orleans, Louisiana, he's called Los Angeles home since the early 1980s. Campbell began his career in the French Quarter as a teen, and earned his B.S. degree from the University of Bourbon Street, majoring in Singin' All Night. Campbell is the long-time lead singer and songwriter for Jack Mack and the Heart Attack, since 1984. He developed studio chops at Muscle Shoals Alabama (long before that studio was a household name), and SeaSaint (Allen Toussaint and Marshall Seahorn), New Orleans. His New Orleans roots are never far from his heart, and he still plays with old cohorts, most recently with the Texas/Louisiana Swamp Funk band (Ken) Cordray, (Allyn) Robinson, and Campbell. He maintains his close ties to his old cadre of Louisiana soul men like Luther Kent, G.G. Shinn, Jerry Fisher, and the late Jerry LeCroix. Along with Jack Mack co-founders (guitarist Andrew Kastner and sax-man/producer Billy Bergman) Campbell is the co-writer of some all-time favorite party-soul tunes like "Soul Man." Jack Mack and the Heart Attack - "The Hardest Working Band in Soul Business" - is the former Late Show Band, has appeared at many major events and concerts world-wide, can be heard (and often seen) in many movies (such as Tuff Turf and Police Academy, among others), and has many albums and CDs to its credit. The band is still ringing the bell, and its latest (2017) album "Back to the Shack" can be found on Top Blues and Soul charts worldwide. Campbell has been writing and singing with Jack Mack since 1984. You can also hear him and his compositions on many other albums, including the 2014 album CRC - Cordray Robinson Campbell (Kenny Cordray, Allyn Robinson, Mark Campbell), "Texas Swamp Funk - Full Grown Men's Soul, Funk, and Rock love letter to the universe, New Orleans style!" Campbell is also a prolific solo performer and voice artist - a 50-year veteran of song. Among many movie songs, Campbell is the voice of Michael J. Fox singing "Johnny B. Goode" in Back to the Future (for which he received a gold record in 1985), the singer in Williams' and Conti's "All Roads Lead to You" (from the movie released as "Inferno" and "Desert Heat"), the singer of "Cruella DeVille" from Disney's 102 Dalmatians, and Drive Angry's final credits "Alive (Last Ride to Hell)" by Meatloaf. Among Campbell's hundreds of movie and television song credits, you'll hear him in Mulan, Return of the Jedi (director's cut), The Money Pit, Frankie and Johnny, and Finding Graceland (singing "Suspicious Minds" for Harvey Keitel), the Simpsons, Family Guy, King of the Hill, the Beethoven cartoons, and many more. You'll also hear his voice featured in many dozens of albums and tours, singing with the likes of Billy Gibbons and ZZ Top, Huey Lewis, Sheila E, Jackson Browne, and the Bugs Henderson Memorial album. Campbell's distinctive, fun, warm, and powerful voice is an American Institution -- the heartbeat of America -- and no doubt you've heard him singing and narrating thousands of national TV commercials, television shows, movies, cartoons, and lead and back-up vocals for many well-known bands and albums. Campbell lives in Los Angeles with his law professor wife, Kate, and stepdaughter Martha. They spend a lot of time climbing up and down mountains.
