Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever played at?

Touring the world with Princess Cruises was definitely a highlight, getting to play for 1000s of guests everyweek.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

I am a huge Bruce Springsteen fan. However i think the greatest song of all time is Don Mclean's American Pie


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

I learned to play guitar 30+ years ago and spent my teens busking in Galway. Once old enough I played in local pubs and clubs and from there have played all over the world; Australia, Europe, America and more.


What's your favourite type of event to play at?

I like playing any event where people are eager to enjoy themselves.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

I arrive 45 minutes typically before start time and it takes about 30 minutes to setup.
Sets are usually 2 x 45 mins or 3 x 45 mins but I can adjust these timings to suit the event.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Happy to perform outside, most of my equipment can run off battery power if I'm told in advance, a flat level but I ask for shade, a flat level surface and a power supply close to the performance area.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

I can learn a specific song before an event if two weeks notice given, I have a repetoire of 1200 to draw from so a lot of possible choices should be covered. For certain events like Weddings for example I will typically meet with the couple and discuss the general vibe of the music.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

"We saw Mike playing in a Manchester bar and knew we had to have him for our Wedding reception. He chose music which kept our guests of all ages entertained all evening, cannot recommend highly enough." Paul C.
