October 11 street date. Cory Marks can sometimes feel like an outsider. A North Bay, Ontario native, former hockey player who dreamed of one day flying his own plane, before sitting behind a drum kit like his idol, Rush's Neil Peart. Marks is taking up his territory, equally divided between arena-rock and roots country. With his second full-length Better Noise Music album, "Sorry For Nothing", Marks takes up his territory, offering up an unapologetic double-barreled blast of 13 songs, equally divided between arena-rock and roots country. It's a blend that's proven to be a crowd-pleaser for Marks, joining together diverse audiences on tours with Five Finger Death Punch, ZZ Top, and Brantley Gilbert, while joining Nickelback on the main stage at this year's Boots and Hearts festival. Produced by longtime collaborator Kevin Churko and Andrew Baylis, "Sorry For Nothing" is a welcome sign of unity in a world of divisiveness. "I've never been about division", he says. "I've always wanted to be part of something, but I pave my own lane, do what I want to do, try to bring people together".
