'At only 19 years of age Mike Dawes has already made quite an impact in and around the National music circuit. An experimental solo acoustic guitarist, Mike has performed with acts such as 'The Martin Harley Band' and received glowing reviews from acts such as Newton Faulkner as well as Hollywood A lister Jamie Bell.
Mike performs technically virtuosic compositions and arrangements with a style that silences rooms and drops jaws. not only does he produce sounds and effects from his guitars that seem limitless, he performs a variety of pieces with the guitar on his lap, much like a multi-layered piano.

He is currently performing as a duo with a classical harp player, Amy Turk. This set features many world instruments such as Native American Cedar Flute. You can find out about his music at www.myspace.com/mikedawesmusic and www.youtube.com/mikedawesofficial'
