We strive for versitility:
We can play a variety of venues and please a variety of audiences. Mike and the Wavemakers can play a 10 or 12 song "unplugged" set that has a "back porch" sing-a-long feel to it, or move to amplified acoustic guitar and then electric guitars as need arises. Call, email, or use our Contact Us page for more information on what we can provide.

Mike is now offering guitar lessons in his studio! 

For Information on lessons, go to the Guitar Lessons page.
