Mark Santourdjian
Mark Santourdjian is the Founder and Creative Director of ONQ Live, a premier North American live entertainment agency built on a passion for music and a mission to elevate artists. What began as an entertainment company quickly evolved through Mark’s personal journey as a professional musician and drummer, having performed at high-caliber events and festivals around the world. Through those experiences, he recognized a gap in how talented musicians were being discovered and positioned, which motivated him to create a platform that not only delivers exceptional entertainment, but also creates meaningful opportunities for artists to be seen, heard, and valued. Under his leadership, ONQ Live has become a trusted partner for Fortune 500 companies, luxury brands, and global organizations, curating world-class talent and producing elevated, music-driven experiences. The agency is known for its ability to seamlessly match the right artists to the right environments, ranging from intimate, sophisticated settings to large-scale, high-energy productions, while highlighting cultural diversity and musical excellence. In parallel, Mark is a seasoned corporate leader, serving as National Sales Director in the healthcare diagnostics industry. His dual career brings a unique perspective to ONQ Live, blending business strategy with creative vision and allowing him to approach entertainment as a powerful tool for connection, engagement, and brand storytelling. Driven by authenticity, collaboration, and a deep respect for artistry, Mark continues to position ONQ Live as “The Music Agency,” redefining how live entertainment is experienced across North America, while staying true to his original mission of creating opportunity for musicians to thrive.
