Timeline
Turner lived on the Otago Peninsula, near Dunedin, New Zealand. He died in early February 2016.
Marcus Turner died suddenly at his home on 2 February 2016 at the age of 59.
After returning from the United Kingdom, Marcus and Anne moved to Macandrew Bay, on the Otago Peninsula, ten minutes drive from Dunedin. They had two children, Cushla and Maura. Anne died after a long illness in 2014.
In 2005, Turner released his second solo album Laid Down. His musical interests included traditional music from many countries, and he played a wide variety of traditional musical instruments with Footspa, a band comprising musicians from other groups located in the Dunedin area.
Turner was born in Roxburgh, the eldest of three children (the others being a brother, Linus, and a sister, Marcella), and grew up in the small seaside settlement of Karitane. His father worked as a psychiatric nurse, his mother in many rolls, including general nurse at the nearby Cherry Farm Hospital. Marcus was schooled at East Otago High School in Palmerston, before going to Dunedin's University of Otago, where he majored in zoology, graduating with honours in 1978.
Turner began performing at Dunedin's Otago University Folk Music Club in 1973. Initially, his music consisted of covers of music by singers such as Paul Simon and John Denver, but gradually expanded to include traditional folk. Turner was, during the 1970s, a member of several folk groups, notably the High Country Bluegrass. A gifted multi-instrumentalist, he was at home playing guitar, banjo, mandolin, or any of the more unusual folk instruments he collected from around the world.
Turner began to write his own songs, and had early success with the comedic "The Civil Service Song", released by EMI as a single in the late 1970s. His first album, The Best is Yet to Come was released by CityFolk in 1983. He proved to be a versatile writer, able to turn his hand to both wryly tongue-in-cheek comedy songs and more introspective serious numbers. During his time in the United Kingdom, Turner devoted much of his time to music and performance, but found the British folk scene disheartening and unpalatable.
Marcus William Turner (16 February 1956 – 2 February 2016) was a singer-songwriter and folk musician from New Zealand. He performed at folk festivals in New Zealand, in Australia, and overseas. He was also a presenter in the TVNZ children's television programmes Spot On, How's That and Play School (in the latter of which he was also a director).
