Mike was raised in Delmar, NY (Albany area) and met his longtime Musical Partner (John Haggerty- The Porters/Hair of the Dog/Get Up Jack) in 6th grade while playing together in their Parish "Folk Mass". Mike really started consistent gigging in 1980, while attending the University of New Hampshire and out on Cape Cod during the summers. He was the lead singer in Upstate NY's Celtic/Folk bands, "Hair of the Dog" & "Get Up Jack" from 1990-2017 (plenty of band and solo videos/MP3's on Youtube & Spotify). During that time his bands took fans on 11 Ireland Tours, played numerous Irish Festivals and opened for the likes of The Clancy Brothers, The Wolfetones, Tommy Makem, Black 47, Great Big Sea & Eileen Ivers, just to name a few. Mike and his wife Suzie moved to Cape Cod shortly after his retirement from Teaching/Coaching in Upstate NY. While on the Cape, Mike continued to perform solo as well as with Irish Fiddler Rose Clancy. In the Fall of 2023, Mike and Suzie moved to Florida to be more accessible to family and enjoy the great weather. He now concentrates on playing music full-time at Pubs/Restaurants/Resorts and Senior Residences. You'll be happy to know that Mike's Mom's Maiden name was "Dunigan", so don't let the Italian last name alarm you.
