Mikey Jose at The Chapel

A combination of traditional soul and modern R&B/pop flair, Mikey Jose’s familiar yet novel sound has been turning heads internationally and catching the attention of major global talent since his debut single release, “Stay @ Home”, in 2019. His debut EP, “Hindsight”, released in late 2020 gained him global recognition, receiving local and global radio play, including spins from Swedish P3 National radio.

Mikey’s signature soulful vocals and elegant runs have also caught the attention of major Soul/R&B names through his Instagram channel, including Allen Stone, Jeremy Passion, and DeAndre, and has helped him land supporting acts and collaborations with rising international artists, such as Lawrence, Clark Beckham, Sam Wills, and Giacomo Turra.

Currently pursuing a PhD in Neuroscience, Mikey’s life revolves around trying to understand how our brains respond to music, and the innate connection that humans have between music and emotion. Having discovered this deeply seeded music-emotion connection himself through writing an original musical that raised $250K+ for local and global charities, Mikey realized that the power of music surpasses a mere aesthetic purpose, and can be used as a means to mediate serious brain conditions and disorders. His art informs his research and vice-versa, as he hopes to help bridge the gap between science and art.
