Mark Wilson is an Australian bass guitarist, best known as part of the Melbourne-based rock band, Jet.[3][4]
He was asked to join the group in 2002 by the other three members, Nic Cester, Chris Cester and Cameron Muncey, but initially refused perhaps out of loyalty to The Ca$inos since he was that band's original bassist. Later he rang up Muncey and the Cesters and agreed to join them instead.
Wilson usually plays a vintage Fender Precision in either sunburst or white. He plays with a pick.
Wilson also plays piano (Look what you've done; Seventeen; She holds a Grudge...), percussion, samples, synthesizer and harmonica for the band. He sings some backing vocals (Rollover DJ; Beat On Repeat, Times Like This...)
He co-wrote 'Start The Show' with Guitarist Cameron Muncey.
On 24 October 2007 JET's drummer Chris Cester and Mark Wilson produced a song, under the name "The Vice Lords" for the Japanese former duo Superfly titled "I Spy I Spy". Mark and Chris wrote the music and the lyrics and were both featured in the Video,[5] playing their instruments.
