Influenced by his father, Tony Marks, an original member of Frankie Valli's first group, The Four Lovers, Damon Marks began playing the guitar passionately when he was ten years old. Since then, Damon has utilized his musical abilities in tandem with his impressive business acumen to achieve tremendous success in the music industry.

Best-known for his inspired guitar chops and generous philanthropic work, Damon Marks has collaborated with a diverse range of notable rock musicians over the course of his career including Bret Michaels, Tommy Aldridge, Bruce Kulick, Marco Mendoza and Chris Caffery. As a performer, Damon has also garnered national recognition for his work as a touring guitarist on Alicia Keys' Freedom Tour. During the tour, Damon played in numerous world-renowned arenas such as Madison Square Garden, The Prudential Center, Trump Taj Mahal and Washington D.C.'s Verizon Center.

Damon also helmed and played lead guitar for the female-fronted rock band, Lipstick Magazine.

As a part of the tour, Lipstick Magazine also performed at the Rocklahoma Festival.

Outside of his career as a songwriter and performer, Damon maintains a steadfast commitment to music related philanthropic causes. Specifically, in 2009, Damon founded the Traveling Guitar Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization which provides musical equipment and support for school systems that are struggling to finance their music education programs.

The year 2011 promises to be a busy and productive period in Damon's career. In addition to his ongoing work with the Traveling Guitar Foundation, Damon plans on releasing his first solo record, an all instrumental album highlighted by an exciting and unique amalgamation of rock fusion, smooth jazz and heavy metal grooves. Additionally, before the end of the year, Damon will release a Traveling Guitar Foundation charity compilation album which will feature various nationally-known recording artists as well as younger musicians and students who have benefited from the Foundation..
