“The song ‘Devil’s Grin’ is a story about that person you can’t seem to get enough of even though you know it just means trouble. That angel’s smile is the devil’s grin,” adds Marks.
The new single follows his hit single ‘Outlaws & Outsiders’, which boasts guest appearances from country icon Travis Tritt, Ivan Moody of Five Finger Death Punch and Mick Mars from Mötley Crüe. The song has been burning up the US airplay charts and has over 10 million streams worldwide and is still growing. Presently, the song is Top 20 in the US at Rock Radio and Top 30 in Canadian Rock Radio. It is also on the A-List at Planet Rock Radio in the UK.
Marks has also been connecting with fans worldwide during these troubled times by live-streaming performances weekly with #humpdaylive on Instagram every Wednesday, and #Its5OClockSomewhere on Facebook Live every Friday.
Cory Marks mixes country music with the hard-hitting stomp of rock & roll. Full of autobiographical storytelling, guitar-driven anthems, drinking songs, and breakup ballads, Cory Marks’ songs are rooted in the influence of his hometown, North Bay, Ontario. Listening to Deep Purple, Ozzy Osbourne, Rush and outlaws like Waylon Jennings and Merle Haggard, Marks weaved the two genres into his own unique sound, which earnt him a string of gigs with US country heavyweights such as Toby Keith and Brantley Gilbert along the way.
Marks has also recently released ‘Blame It On The Double’, and has just been announced as support on the upcoming tour with Breaking Benjamin and Bush across the US this summer. He will also be special guest to Alice Cooper for two dates in July as part of his Ol’ Black Eyes Is Back tour.
