It seems like it was just yesterday that we were singing along to Autumn Hill’s “Blame”. Many were shocked when the news broke that Mike and Tareya were dropping Anchor and going their separate ways a few years ago. Tareya went on to start a solo career while Mike’s path lead him to a new group project East Adelaide. As part of Autumn Hill, Mike has been nominated for 4 Canadian Country Music Awards, 2 JUNO Awards, and 5 Country Music Association of Ontario Awards, and won awards for the CMAO’s Rising Star and Best Group/Duo.
On Friday Mike formally launched his own solo career with his debut single “Lightning Don’t Strike Twice”. The single is a perfect wedding song, a love song about feeling that once in a lifetime kind of love unlike anything else.
Over his career, to date, Mike has shared the stage with incredible artists including Keith Urban, Dierks Bentley, Florida Georgia Line, Dean Brody, Dallas Smith, and Tim McGraw and has performed at major venues such as Boots and Hearts, Havelock Jamboree, Country Thunder, Cavendish Beach Fest, The Calgary Stampede, and Big Valley Jamboree. Now branching out on his own, Mike is ready to deliver his fresh sounding new music and take his success solo.
We caught up with Mike a few weeks ago, one of our first official conversations since the end of Autumn Hill. Watch below and see what he’s been up to for the past 3 years and what he’s got planned for the future!
