Jazz pianist and composer Mark Sloniker has appeared on ABC and ESPN television sports specials and National Public Radio programming, including "Music from the Hearts of Space" and "Morning Edition." His music has received airplay in the U.S., Spain, Japan, Germany and Canada. Sloniker has served as featured accompanist for former NBC "Tonight Show" host Steve Allen and has performed with Los Angeles Philharmonic principal flutist James Walker. Mark earned his bachelor's degree in music therapy from Colorado State University and interned at the Colorado Mental Health Institute at Fort Logan in Denver.

Sloniker is accompanied by his singer-songwriter wife Colleen Crosson. At the age of twelve, Crosson knew her instruments of choice were an acoustic guitar and her captivating voice. With no formal music training, Crosson performed at local clubs, bars and coffee shops. The solo performer recently released her first solo CD called "Singing into Being." Crosson attended Colorado State University and studied Wildlife Biology and Anthropology.
