About Your Teacher

At age 19 he was snatched up by the groundbreaking David Grisman Quintet to tour and record with jazz violin legend Stephane Grappelli, Tony Rice, Darol Anger and Mark O’Connor.
Since then, Mike has produced over 40 of his own recordings on the Sony, Rounder, Sugar Hill, Compass, Windham Hill, and his own Adventure Music label and performed and recorded with Chris Thile, Edgar Meyer, Bela Fleck, Hamilton De Holanda, Joshua Bell, Vasen and the Turtle Island Quartet.
Mike continues to push the boundaries of New Acoustic Music and has become one of the preeminent educators in the genre.
