Mark Ramos-Nishita performs under the moniker Money Mark. He has a career that any musician would envy. He tours with the Beastie Boys as a keyboardist, writes music for films, collaborates with the likes of Yoko One and Beck, and fronts his own projects.

That's his focus now. He's just out with a new album in 2007, Brand New Tomorrow, that is on surfing-crooner Jack Johnson's label.

Songs performed: "Color of Your Blues," "Summer Blue," and "Sneaky People."
