Marko Perković (English transliteration: Marko Perkovich, born 27 October 1966 in Čavoglave) is a Croatian singer and songwriter. He is the lead singer in the Croatian band Thompson. He uses the band's name as a nickname. He sings about love, God, and his motherland. His songs are coloured by Croatian nationalistic sentiments, whose origins are from World War II and the 1991-1995 Croatian War of Independence.

Croatian journalist Matija Babić brought Perković's performance of a modified version of the song Jasenovac i Gradiška Stara to widespread public attention, in which Perković pays tribute to Ustaša figureheads and their deeds.

Perković has written many songs for other singers, for example: Mate Bulić. He has also sang in duets with Miroslav Škoro, Tiho Orlić, and Jasmin Stavros.

Marko Perković is the best singer in Croatia. His songs are emotional and lot of people recognizes that. Jasenovac & Gradiška Stara is a set up. Marko Perković was never in any connection with that song. God and Croats!
