Learn About Mike

Mike started his music career playing in England on the South Coast as a duo singing in pubs and clubs using a Fender Custom Telecaster and a VOX AC30 and that's when the fun started.

 Then progressed to form a band called 'Strange Brew' enjoying playing with colleagues throughout the South Coast. In particular 'Tris Margetts' who went on to play with Greg Lake from Emerson Lake & Palmer....aaaah yes the great bass player !!

After continuing on that path for a while Mike played with many known musicians in studios across England to assist in their creations, playing guitar and adding harmony backing vocals.

Mike  migrated to Australia and settling down in Adelaide, playing different venues throughout South Australia before moving to Townsville.

Having arrived in Townsville and playing at many different venues throughout North Queensland the band 'Whiteline' was formed and went on to have huge success on the festival circuit culminating with winning 'Charters Towers Country Music Festival'. A five piece band with five piece harmonies, and great memories.

The band went seperate ways and Mike resumed a solo career playing venues throughout North Queensland. Mike released an album with original songs and thankfully the members of Whiteline helped him on the album with their individual styles. Mike then toured throughout Australia finally coming back to Townsville to re-establish a base and to this day still performs, singing and playing guitar.  Mike now has the studio set up and is busy recording tracks making them available right here. With over 3000 songs on live playlist the tracks in 'Music Shop' are just a few of many.     'See Music Shop'     and enjoy  Laughing
