Art Moves: Peter Markes at OKC MOA

Art Moves will feature musician, Peter Markes, on Wednesday, 5/15, at the OKC Museum of Art from 12-1PM! Come spend your lunch with Art Moves!

Artist Bio: After a 16-year career in the orchestra classroom and being named the 2014 State Teacher of the Year in Oklahoma, Peter left teaching to pursue creating and sharing music full-time. Second only to family, his greatest love is to play my guitar and sing with playing his violin a near second. James Taylor and the Beatles are spun the most on his record player, and he strives to write uplifting and encouraging lyrics accompanied by beautiful yet simple melodies. Peter’s latest musical adventure has led him to looping violin performances where each song is built live in front of the audience with nothing pre-recorded.

​The greatest fortune in his musical life is having parents that viewed music as an essential part of the home. A near second has been making music with his friend and musical partner of over two decades, Kyle Dillingham. As part of his band, Horseshoe Road, he enjoys learning new songs of all genres and bringing to life the possibilities of changing lives through music. Learn more about us at www.HorseshoeRoad.net.”
