Mike produces a huge sound for just one person using a sophisticated multi-loop machine live to create layers of vocal harmonies and rhythms then he adds a drum machine (beat box) for added oomph!
Mike can go from solo acoustic ballad to full on dance mania. With many years’ experience as a professional musician he is charismatic versatile and extremely adept at working with an audience.
When it comes to the repertoire it is very varied and Mike says “you never know if your audience will be in their twenties or sixties or both! So different styles are a speciality.”
For larger parties Mike may recommend his duo set up where he works with a keyboard player to produce more of a band feel or why not go the whole hog with Mike’s full 5 piece band.

I would like to recommend Mike as an excellent vocalist/musician/entertainer who performed recently at my 50th birthday event.
He was very professional and delivered an excellent set of well-known and less well-known songs throughout the evening. It catered for everyone’s tastes and was of a high standard, which it needed to be as many musicians were present.
He engaged the guests in a friendly, interactive way enabling the event to be really enjoyed by family, guests and myself, which took the pressure off my family to entertain. I would recommend him as an excellent performer.
Thanks Mike.
