Grammy-winning guitarist Mike Dowling draws inspiration from deep in the musical bag of American roots guitar. He’s firmly grounded in authenticity and possessed of a musical soul as old as the vintage music he favors. Fluent in several styles and difficult to pigeonhole, Mike has captured the hearts of acoustic music fans throughout the world with his engaging voice, self-deprecating wit, and elegant interpretations of an arsenal of old blues, swing, ragtime, and original compositions.

House concerts are a great way to hear live music in the intimate setting of a living room. Not only do you sit just feet away from the performer, but you have a chance to visit with them before and after the concert, to buy CDs, to socialize with old friends, and to make new acquaintances.
