Mike Robinson Trio
7:00pmDazzle Jazz 930 Lincoln St.
Mike Robinson is a Brooklyn based guitarist, composer and singer. Although often referred to as a bluegrass musician, Mike comes from a very diverse background of jazz and various styles of american music.
Mike has rarely been without guitar in his hands since he was six years old. Growing up in Boulder, Colorado, the vibrant acoustic music scene opened his ears to a world of mountain music. He was soon performing weekly in his father’s quintet, getting him further immersed into the professional musical world. At age eighteen, Mike moved to New York City to study at The New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music where he graduated with a BFA in Jazz Studies. The aggressive, urban nature of New York brought out the audacious side of Mike’s playing; the perfect foil to his calm transcendental musical roots. By combining these disparate influences, Mike has created his own uniquely personal sound.
