MICKELSON

Friday July 7th, 8pm, The Cellar

 

“The combination of the layered vocals and instrumental textures, along with a tune that feels immediately familiar, is that ‘UNarmed American’ becomes anthemic.” – Americana U.K.

 

“San Francisco singer/songwriter Mickelson brings us something that is both reassuringly familiar and yet wholly unique.” – At The Barrier (UK)

 

“This music is the balance between strong, subtle, unexpected, and sophisticated.” – Paste Magazine

 

“I call it anthemic when a band or chorus hits all the notes just right and the sound becomes bigger than it should be and Mickelson hits it often enough on this album to make it worthy of the highest of recommendations.” – No Depression 

 

“It’s American folk-Rock with a post punk edge, rustic but scarred.” – Alternative Press Magazine

 

“Flickering, a buoyant composition showcasing that Mickelson offers undeniable musical charm and instrumental dexterity.” – Glide Magazine

 

Singular Artists proudly present Mickelson for their highly anticipated headline show at The Workman’s Cellar, 7th July 2023.

 

US alternative folk/rock artist Mickelson is back with the brand new single: ‘Only Grey Matter Boiling In My Head’ and a fresh run of UK Dates. Kicking-off the new year with a choice collaboration, the new single ‘Only Grey Matter Boiling In My Head’ sees the San Francisco songwriter teaming-up with XTC legend Colin Moulding. Gifting the track with its notably tilting basslines, the additional grandiose piano lines and accomplished drum rolls are courtesy of Mickelson’s UK-based live band, Jon Buckett and Lee Moulding respectively. Standing as the first piece of recorded music they have laid-down with their frontman. The band will be accompanied by Ian Taylor on bass.
