Mark Volman Co-Founder Of The Turtles


 Mark Volman, the co-founder and arguably, the most memorable of the 60s rock band The Turtles, died Friday (September 5th, 2025). He was 78.

Volman was known for his frizzy hair and voice, he seemed to also have the most comedic flair.  He could play almost any instrument. 

 The band's lead singer and also co-founder, Howard Kaylan, briefly lived in the Seattle area, where he and his wife were customers at our UPS Store in Crossroads, Bellevue. 

I was able to watch Volman play at a couple of the Happy Together Tour concerts that we attended.
