Professional since 2005. Soloist with Princess Cruises and music promoters in the north west of England. I play famous acoustic songs. Everything from Oasis to Ed Sheeran, to 60s hits to finger picking and trad blues to Harry Styles.
"Mike has featured on BBC Radio, played festival stages, fronted bands, supported pop acts, taught hundreds of guitar students as well as playing sets on the deck of cruises, hotels, restaurants, cafes, bars, pubs, corporate and function gigs.
Since working with It's Live in Lancashire and Holland-America Cruise Lines, I've perfected a set of over 100 for all occasions from the Captain's lunch to stylish restaurants, weddings and lively pub nights.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

Contract with Princess Cruises - Mexico, to Hawaii, to San Francsico three months. Support for Midge Ure of Ultravox. My favourite gigs were in the 90s with our own fans.
The Beatles. One of the best bands of pop history and best songwriting team. They did everything a musician would dream of doing. From rock n roll in black leather jackets (Hamburg) to virtually inventing indie rock. Their songs stand out even now.
Starting playing live on stage in the 1990s. Fronted bands and wrote the songs. Became a professional guitar tutor and live performer from 2005.
Anywhere with my own favourite musician friends, my own songs and a decent crowd who are there to hear us play.
