Since relocating from his native Bologna (where he played in cult Italian band Gli Avvoltoi) to London in the early 1990s, Marco Magnani has been a stalwart of the city's underground scene where 60's pop and folk meets psychedelic rock n roll. His previous band Instant Flight worked for several years as the backing group of Arthur Brown as well as releasing a string of meticulously crafted and well received albums.

Now with Mark & The Clouds as his current lineup, Magnani continues to write produce and release great psych pop n roll records, with a list of bandmates and collaborators from the UK/Spanish/Italian psych scene and centred around the 3-piece nucleus of Marco on vocals and guitar plus John O'Sullivan (Instant Flight/The Snakes/Limozine) on bass, vocals and guitar, and Shin Okajima on drums (Shin and Marco formed The Smokers in 1994).

Waves is Mark & The Clouds' third album release, following on from Blue Skies Opening (2014) and Cumulus (2017) - both on Mega Dodo Records.

Tracks feature guest brass players Tom and Joseph Hammond, keys from Rachel Kashi and violin from Maya Kasparova, and the album was recorded and produced in London through 2020.
