Mick got into the music industry at the ripe old age of 15. While resident in South Africa, he joined a local function band as a rhythm guitarist. After joining a rival band, a year later, he was forced to sing at a gig, when the Lead guitarist/ Vocalist, came down with laryngitis. After that, he WAS the vocalist. When he returned to the UK, he discovered Rock and Blues, and has remained true to this genre ever since, playing in multitude of rock bands, across the South East. After moving to the Midlands in 2008, he tried to get a band together, but after numerous attempts, was about to give up, when an advert on a musicians website caught his eye. The rest, as they say, is history. One of his band reviews, described his voice thus, “it sounds like he gargles with broken glass before breakfast”.

Mick says: I’m really glad that I answered that ad. Me and the guys have gelled well as people, and musically. 2012 is gonna be a good year for Final Cut!
