About

Mike Dignam at the tender age of seventeen wrote and recorded his debut album, producing a collection of songs full of teen angst and energy, wrapped up with dynamic vocals and composition belying his years. He put some of the songs on the internet and let people here them (back when MySpace was novel) and 30,000 fans quickly appeared on his profile. Without anyone else to pay for it, Mike saved up and paid for the pressing of 1000 CD’s as now sold out of the CD’s via the internet, at gigs and busking.

Justifiably proud of this fledgling composition Mike set about honing his song writing skills, searching for that hit hook. This journey took him through collaborations with international song writers, winning competitions (under 18 Youth Music winner), going to college to study music, asking for advice off everyone he met and busking on the streets of London.

Without making banal comparisons you wouldn’t be a million miles off the mark with favourable likening to James Morrison and Jason Mraz.

Two years later, the beginnings of album number two are taking shape. 2000 copies of a free acoustic mini album were given out end of November 2010, to coincide with supporting Joe Brooks on his UK tour. He performed a debut headline tour in February 2011, taking in six cities and sold over 500 tickets. A full band version of the acoustic mini album is due out on his created label in the summer of 2011, as well as supporting Kate McGill on tour in June, and other key support and festival dates.

Mike has supported the following artists around the UK. JLS, Just Jack, Taio Cruz, Alpha Beat, Elliot Minor, Nick Harper, Roachford, Will Francis (Aiden), Joe Brooks, Kate McGill, Vagabond and more.
