Mick calls the music he does “Americana Roots." Although each song is grounded in the "Roots" tradition, you can hear the influence of Folk, Rock, Country and his own "Ozark" Blues throughout the performance.
Mick calls the music he does “Americana Roots†because he says “That gives me the freedom to do what I enjoy and what I hope the listeners will enjoy.†Serious music listeners are sure to enjoy the depth and imagery of these story songs. From thoughtful social issues to fun filled songs that make you laugh, folk/rock, country or Mick’s own “Ozark blues†these songs keep you listening. Mick has 7 CD’s and a special 2 song CD with “The Chance†and “Gentle Souls†benefiting Special Olympics Missouri.
Mick has won a national songwriting award from Billboard Magazine for “Afternoon At The Wall.†His guest performance on “River City Folk,†a NPR program hosted by Folk Artist Tom May, has been repeated. “Drivin' That Lawnmower to Town†& “This Old Truck†have been played on the NPR Program, “Car Talk†hosted by Tom and Ray Magliozzi. Mick has also performed twice on “Writer’s Block†hosted by Karen Reynolds on WDVX in Knoxville, TN, a program devoted to independent artists.

Mick is a member of the Missouri Arts Council Performing Artists, Mid-America Arts Alliance Touring Roster, Nashville Songwriters Association International and the Americana Music Association.
Mexicali Blues Cantina features a full Mexican menu, including a huge and delicious beef and bean burrito. The fajitas platter is almost a meal for two or maybe just one very hungry person. Both of these dinners are superb. However you just might fall under the spell of our "out of this world" lobster taco. Live Blues Entertainment every Monday May through September.
