ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Mike Blue started his musical journey, like so many others, as a teenager in a small corner or a small room in an even smaller town in the North West of England. Armed with nothing but an old guitar his mother bought for him off eBay and a deep love for all things music; he began learning, writing and composing the day he started playing. He started his first band at 15 and began touring whilst still in high school, playing in major cities and small towns all over the U.K. He has played in several bands throughout the years but has always been a dedicated musician and songwriter in his own right. In 2015, Blue moved to Liverpool and began busking on the streets to support himself – as well as embarking on intense tours around the U.K. in order to play his music for anybody who would listen. Since then he has released two major bodies of works: ‘The Demo Tapes’ which was an acoustic album cut live in Liverpool’s ‘Parr Street Studios’ in 2018 and ‘Dark Daze’ which he recorded himself in his bedroom during lockdown in the Covid-19 pandemic at the end of 2020. Blue’s sound has been described as a blend of folk and blues, often being compared to the likes of players such as: John Martyn, Nick Drake, Elliot Smith and Leonard Cohen. In December 2021, Blue ended another U.K. tour back in his hometown and currently has several releases planned for his next album which will be released in 2022 as well as another U.K. tour in the works for the year ahead.
