Off the Beaten Track  by Scott  Sheldon

"The music of Chicago songwriter, troubadour and music educator Mark Dvorak is best described in one of his lyrics: "Another hopeful song for a dismal day." The themes on this, his fourth album for Waterbug, are often gloomy - the coming of age, lost love, a fallen soldier, or just 'livin' with the blues' - but he delivers those songs in a clear, sweet tenor that conveys humor and optimism. For example, in singing about coming to middle age, he jokes that he has 'something left to say,' but just 'not quite as loud.' "

Around Here by Kelley Simms

"Folk singer-song writer Mark Dvorak's fouth Waterbug release, 'Time Ain't Got Nothin' On Me,' features 12 originals, plus three live tracks. Dvorak's songs about life, time, and age are delicately crafted with familiar, folksy warmth. His voice conjures the spirit of Buddy Holly while he pours his heart and soul into the music."

Paul Schingle Reviews by Paul Schingle

"It's been nearly five years since Mark Dvorak' has released a disc of mostly original tunes (2006's 'Every Step of the Way'). Mark has blessed his listening public with fifteen new songs. Twelve of the songs on the CD are Dvorak's own compositions. It was worth the wait."
