  • Bio

    Hailed as UK's answer to Babyface, Mike Soul is making waves as a multi-talented artist. At the age of 23, his impressive resume includes singer, songwriter, MC, producer and musician. From the tender age of 8 years, Mike's musical roots were established within the church and as a member of the gospel choir and young pianist, he supported popular acts such as the Clarke Sisters and Dawkins & Dawkins. With a soulful range and an acoustic brand of RnB he has been dominating air play on WBLS-FM in New York and UK underground radio stations such as Bassline FM, Blues FM, Galaxy FM, Genesis FM and Y2K FM. He has written and produced tracks for an array of UK artists including Plan B (acclaimed Hiphop artist), as well as performing at the Annual Hip-hop Festival 2004 in Switzerland. More recently he has recorded/backed vocals on tracks for the likes of ..Westlife, Shayne Ward and the X-factor 2007 Winner - Leona Lewis. His inspiration for his songs is a combination of personal experience and friends angst whilst his musical influences range from gospel greats John P Kee, Kirk Franklin, Bebe and Cece Winans to soul legends Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye, amongst many. Active on the club circuit, Mike has graced venues with his breathtaking live performances, including Mic Club@The Telegraph - Brixton (voted Top 5 in the Metro for best "live" night, 2004), Isobar (South Bank University), Vocool - Angel, Sesto bar (Xxpressions.com) Edgware, Hackney Empire(291 Variety Show),G Lounge(Camden) and the popular Cobden Club (Westbourne Park).

Although unsigned, Mike Soul has a catalogue of tracks ready for his forthcoming album which has gained immense interest from numerous labels. With up-beat club tracks such as 'Left Alone' that touches on being optimistic after a heartbreak, 'Hate to Love' documents the joys and pains of falling in love whilst the acoustic 'Best Friend's Girl" highlights the dilemma of a love triangle. "People will enjoy my music because it is true to life. With catchy melodies and bouncy beats and of acoustic value." Mike states. He is definitely one to watch in 2010!
