Mark Tierney


Mark Tierney was a founding member of Strawpeople and is perhaps best known to the public as such, but his place in New Zealand's musical landscape goes far beyond that. He is a man who has spent much of his life behind a recording desk or a camera.

Mark Tierney first made a name for himself behind the mixing desk at Auckland’s Radio 95bFM, recording ads during the day and bands at night, including his own musical project, Strawpeople, with collaborator (and bFM PD) Paul Casserly, whom he met at the station in 1985.
