Marc Chapman comes from Crystal Palace, South London. He joined a drum and pipe band when he was 12 because he is fond of Celtic culture and the bag pipes. Plays in other bands, and does solo gigs. Works in construction as his day job and that gives him the money to carry on with his music. He is a firm believer in God and he also conveys this in his music but he is adamant that he is not a preacher. He feels that the interpretation of god is different for everybody. He is very passionate about God. He hates it when people abuse religion and when they label everything as "a religion" to easily. He loves his wife and 2 boys who are 5 and 12. He will be playing the bag pipes on the plinth, naturally.
