Mike Aiken
While doing extensive touring in the US and Europe and sailing his boat across the Atlantic to distant ports, Mike has never stopped developing his entertaining style. The songs he writes and the experiences he shares are rich with the stories of life, love and wanderlust.
Over the past several years Mike has independently developed an international audience and has maintained a respectable touring schedule in the US and Europe. His musical style has broad appeal as it seamlessly reaches into various styles of popular music. By mixing Americana, Country, and Roots music Mike engages his audience and creates a “back porch” experience that has developed into a broad based, loyal following.
He composes more than 90% of his music and his has been featured in numerous songwriting workshops and seminars. He is an active endorsee for Takamine stringed instruments, Adamas Strings, Ovation Guitars and Mandolins, and Levi’s Jeans.
Often likened to songwriters like Jimmy Buffett and Kenny Chesney for his signature breezy sound and to John Prine and Gordon Lightfoot for his thoughtful lyrics he delivers a show that is unique and all his own. Chosen by Sports Illustrated for one of the Top 40 Best Sports Songs of all time.
Between performances Mike is writing new songs, recording, and working on his philanthropic projects that include the Aiken & Friends Music Fest and the Breezeway Blowout Concert. In it’s sixth year, the Aiken & Friends Fest benefits youth music education through an Americana/Roots festival, or ‘celebration of songwriters.’
