Mike Barnet: vocals, guitar and beats

Thought provoking and socially aware, Mike Barnet's lyrics contain a spirit that is missing in most songs written today. Blending elements of folk, groove and protest, Mike creates music to think and vibe to. Armed with his acoustic guitar, Mike Barnet has the rare ability to create songs memorable enough to shake world views to the oundation. And if given the chance, he will capture the minds of anyone with in earshot.

Migrating from the Seattle Washington to Fullerton California, Mike's musical journey has been a few years in the making. Playing all over the west coast, he continually gains the respect of audiences and critics alike.

In the vignette vein of artists as varied as Nick Drake, Nina Simone, Richie Havens, Johnny Cash, Ani DiFranco, Bob Marley and Bob Dylan, Barnet's music has a unique flavor, filled with soul-bearing honesty and hard hitting reality. The common thread woven through each of his masterful stories is a message of self-examination and hope.
