We had a great conversation today with Mike Burke on The Chris & Sandy Show. We talked so much from family, faith, music, scarifies to some crazy stories! We even got to talk about the Chinese Bamboo Tree, you’ll have to listen LOL
Mike Burke is a singer-songwriter with soul, rock and country influences. Most recently, Mike was awarded 2018’s Southwest Airlines’ Artist on the Rise, and has been named Writer to Watch by Nashville Songwriters Association International several times since 2016. In addition to his previous two albums, Mike is preparing to release his new self-titled EP in May 2020.
As a solo artist and multi-instrumentalist, Mike has toured nationally playing smaller iconic venues such as The Bitter End, Hotel Cafe and Rockwood to performing larger stadiums like Nationals Park and The Staples Center. He has also toured internationally performing at MIDEM in Cannes and Fete de Musique in Paris.
Growing up in a musical family from Boston, MA, Mike started writing and playing at a very young age. The genres of music he listened to growing up included country, hip hop, soul, doo-wop, rock, and the blues; all of which can be heard in his music and seen in his performances today.
