Familiar music for casual listening perfect for markets, cafes, pubs, house and backyard events, small corporate/company events and charity events. I offer easygoing pop, folk, rock and country from different decades. Something for everyone. Very reasonable quotes.
Mike played in our backyard for the cocktail hour for our parents birthday and he was perfect! He was so lovely to deal with leading up to the event, and his music was perfect for a backyard relaxed vibe. Thank you so much Mike!
Response from You Know The Tune:
Thank you, Samara! It was a pleasure to be part of your wonderful event.
Mike was the musical performer for the Down Syndrome Resource Foundation's fundraising event, Run Up for Down Syndrome! I got Mike's information from Vancouver Trout Market and I'm so glad I did! He did a fantastic job performing a great variety of songs and was extremely flexible during our event. The families who attended our event only had great feedback about the new performer we had this year. I would, without hesitation, hire Mike again for a DSRF event, thanks Mike!
Response from You Know The Tune:
Thank you so much, Aja! It was a real pleasure to be part of the event.

I offer tunes from the pop, folk, rock, jazz and country genres. I always enjoy presenting something that people wouldn't expect me to play ( hello Biebs and Brittany) and offering a different version of the song is something I am often complimented on. Some harmonica is used to give an added dimension. Soft and mellow or playing to the back of the room...I never want to interfere with the purpose or enjoyment of your attendees so am happy to take your direction on the volume.
After playing at many of Vancouver's and surrounding area Farmers Markets for 7 years I'm moving indoors. I've played at coffee shops, charity events and company events during this time also and am quite comfortable playing in venues where an entertainer is required to provide an atmosphere of familiar tunes in a casual setting as a background for the social activity underway.
I use my own high quality acoustic amp and microphone, bring my own chair and stands.
