Mark Hennessy was an extremely talented musician who played in numerous bands across the Cape and became a local legend when he formed the Cape Cod Slackers. Mark lived his life doing what he loved - playing music for his fans. continues Mark’s legacy by bringing awareness and providing support to the musically talented children, students and musicians within the Cape Cod Community and beyond.
