Artist description
Destined to be one of the biggest stars to come out of Canada for many years, this young man is assured a good musical future. His self penned songs are full of mixed emotions, of anxst, fear, hope and depair, Aa mixture of dark and light, which lends an air of mystery to both the artist and his music.A highly talented classically trained guitarist and accomplished pianist, Mick uses his aquired skills sparingly, with his haunting vocals , to excellent effect. No lavish over-production here - just simple but hard hitting emotional music.This is an artist with a future. Rob Blaikie (http://www.robsmusic.co.uk/) |

Press Reviews
Despair
If angels existed, then here is one of the fallen. Quite simply one of the best tracks I have heard in my life, and as such, it is completely impossible to put ones finger on what makes it so great! Is it the angelic, pleading, honey soaked male vocals, or is it the crisp and pure drum sound? Could it be the evil grunge guitar that pounds in and out at will, or the structure which sounds different and more beguiling every time you hear it? I dunno, but this has to be the musical equivalent of Peter Falk in 'Wings of Desire'. (10/10)
