We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of award-winning producer and guitarist, Mark Moffatt.

Mark was our inaugural Nashville Member Relations Representative when he was appointed in 2014, working tirelessly for over a decade to create opportunities for both resident and visiting APRA AMCOS members until he retired from the role in June 2024.

Adam Townsend, Director, Writer Services at APRA AMCOS, says: “It was amazing to celebrate Mark's achievements back in June when he officially stepped down as our APRA AMCOS Nashville representative, a role he held for 10 years. So many of his friends and colleagues took to the stage and hailed him as the gentleman and trailblazer we all came to love.

“He is without a doubt a legend of our industry and more importantly, a kind and wonderful person to have known. I was lucky enough to work with Mark for the past decade and he was always an incredibly supportive person, who taught me the important art of being selfless. Many will be saddened by this news, and we want to extend our condolences to our Nashville members and Mark’s family.”

Dean Ormston, CEO of APRA AMCOS, adds: “Mark was a dear friend and colleague and will be sorely missed both in Nashville and in his home country. We offer our deepest condolences to his wife Lindsey, stepdaughter Dana, son Geordie, and his two granddaughters.

“Mark offered unfaltering support to countless members making their way to Nashville over the years, providing them with networking opportunities and connections to engage with key players in their respective genres. His legacy will forever live on with those members, and through his incredible music.”
