Mike's musical days began when he was handed a copy of The Beatles' "Let It Be" album and the song 'I've Got A Feeling", singlehandedly pulled him into the realm of rock.  Mike began playing an acoustic guitar that his Mom had purchased at a garage sale and he never looked back. High School was then spent learning and recording Beatles' songs with his friend, Josh Jimenez.

Mike continued playing music in various cover bands, eventually landing playing bass guitar with Northern California rock band "The Mood". 

Mike is married with a beautiful family, is a former Sergeant in the United States Army and an avid Star Wars, Miami Dolphins and (obviously) Beatles fan. Mike is also Steve's biggest wardrobe critic.
