Tonight I was joined in the studio by Mike Darrah. Best known for his previous guise as frontman with The Ends, Mike has just released his debut solo single, Can’t Tax the Sun, and also played his first gig as a solo artist, which we heard all about tonight. Mike is currently recording new material & adding new tracks regularly to his SoundCloud page, while his next gig will be at Peggy Sue’s Music Bar in Leigh-on-Sea on August 19th – tickets are very limited so head over to his Facebook page to find out more!
