Last year, Mark Vincent surprised fans with the release of ‘Dance Monkey’, his own take on Tones And I’s mammoth single. Now, to kick off the new year Mark has unveiled the official video for his rendition of ‘Dance Monkey’ – watch here.

Mark’s rendition of ‘Dance Monkey’ has pleased fans and critics alike, with NME Australia saying“Vincent’s tenor soars on the cover version, reaching dramatic heights as the song propels towards its chorus”, and Junkee jestingly adding “it’s a wild ride — like the Phantom of the Opera hijacked the Hottest 100.”

Vincent, one of Australia’s most loved crossover artists, was originally inspired to record his own rendition of the song in the hope of bringing some joy to what’s been a very unpredictable 12 months. He says “2020 was a year that none of us could ever have anticipated, full of challenges and uncertainty. As a musician, I struggled being not able to perform and bring happiness to my fans in a way I’m so accustomed to.”

Mark continues “I was so excited to record my version of ‘Dance Monkey’ as it brings something brand new into the world of classical crossover music. I’ve learnt that I have no limitations, and I’m really excited about what else I can do – I’ve learnt a lot about myself whilst recording this song.”

Singing from the age of 15, Mark Vincent has gone on to become one of Australia’s most beloved tenors, having released eight consecutive #1 ARIA Classical Crossover Albums, and having earned accolades both nationally and internationally. Vincent’s 2017 album A TRIBUTE TO MARIO LANZA contained the ground breaking ‘virtual duet’ of ‘Because You’re Mine’ with the Hollywood legend. The album went on to be the highest selling ARIA Classical Crossover album of 2017.

Furthermore, it’s been a big couple of years for Mark, who in 2019 competed in Eurovision – Australia Decides, with his stunning original ‘This Is Not The End’. Prior to Eurovision – Australia Decides, Mark also made waves with his performance in the UK with Susan Boyle at the renowned BBC Proms, and his Musical Theatre debut in the 2014 Australian production of Dirty Dancing, which played 130 shows around the country. In 2016, Dame Julie Andrews DBE cast Mark in her production of My Fair Lady, which toured nationally with Opera Australia to rave reviews. Following that, Mark joined international soprano Katherine Jenkins and Tommy Fleming on their U.K. and Ireland tours respectively, performing in iconic venues including Royal Albert Hall in London. Vincent released his first Christmas album in 2018, THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR, – his ninth LP – an impressive feat for a 27 year old.
