Mike Beck - Acoustic Solo

Mike Beck's mastery of the guitar works wonderfully to support his original songs, storytelling, and wide array of the American songbook. From traditional cowboy songs to Dylan, Haggard, and Woody Guthrie, Mike has a deep appreciation of master songwriters.

Ian Tyson took him under his wing, mentoring him on songwriting and performing. They remained close friends until Ian's passing. Mike's songs have been covered by Colter Wall, Mary McCaslin, and others. He's performed all over the U.S. and Europe, from house concerts and barns, to festivals and The Country Music Hall of Fame.

Mike just finished up a tour opening for Dave Alvin and The Third Mind.... and last year, he performed at The Masonic Auditorium in San Francisco alongside such greats as Jackson Browne, Joan Baez, and Steve Earle, in a tribute to Ramblin' Jack Elliott.
