   About Mike Neer


Interested in having me play on your next recording or gig? Drop me a line at mike@mikeneer.com for more information.

I also give instruction in guitar and lap steel and love to teach in group settings. If you're interested in having me as a clinician or just one-on-one private instruction, contact me for more info at mike@mikeneer.com.

I also provide affordable guitar and lap steel guitar instruction through video correspondence. I may incorporate Skype, as well. No distance too great! Here's a little sample:

"Ticklin' The Strings" by Sweet Hollywaiians
Amazing Japanese hot string band playing 1920's, 30's, 40's style hawaiian, swing, calypso, blues, italian music and originals,featuring vintage instruments.3 songs with Robert Armstrong and Tony Marcus(from Robert Crumb and His Cheap Suit Serenaders)

"The Sweet Hollywaiians have probably the best feel for this 20's music of any string band working today. They manage the rare feat of sounding relaxed even when their playing is hot, are top notch musicians with tasteful arrangements and a full, rich, warm sound.Plus, they have a nice gamut of tunes, from King Nawahi to Giovanni Vicari to Bobby Leecan. See them live, if you can, for an unforgettable experience. If you can't, buy their Cds!"

Hey Mike, thanks for the add. You sound great! Maybe I can get a lesson next time I'm in your area? That would be on or around either: 6/20 Atlantic City, or 7/16 Coney Island, or 10/18 Westbury NY. Seriously!
