Mark David Manders was 15 years old when he attended his first live concert. It was that show, a Willie Nelson concert, that hooked the Texas Country musician on live music.

Friday night Manders will record his first live music album at Blaine’s Pub.

The Plano native is a staple on the San Angelo music scene and chose the Blaine’s stage because “San Angelo fans are the best. When I play there, I know people want to hear the music and are more genuine.”
