"Mark Steiner (and His Problems) is a well-known figure in Oslo’s music underworld, and he’s been around in Norway for so long that many assume that he is Norwegian. He is not. This ex-New Yorker is a wandering scoundrel who one might find hanging out in the shadowy corners of a pub at closing time – whether the nearest street sign reads New York, Oslo, Paris, Berlin, Lisbon or Melbourne. A musical vagrant who draws inspiration from the same sources which may have influenced Stuart Staples, Nick Cave, Leonard Cohen, Rowland S. Howard – yes, that entire circle of hollow-eyed, black-clad night owls with melancholic dispositions and pocket-flasks full of booze to match. Mark Steiner is indeed such a character..." - Egon Holstad, NORDLYS (Norway)Ex-pat New Yorker Mark Steiner lived for many years in Manhattan, where he worked in the film industry and as the frontman of the "swamp-rock" band Piker Ryan's Folly. Then came September 11th, 2001. With a Norwegian passport, he moved to Oslo in 2002, and since then he has worked hard to build a career as both an international solo artist and producer, and as a cultural mediator in Norway.
