Mike Munson (Winona, MN) plays American music in the truest sense. With over a decade of long drives to well-lit, expansive stages, tiny dive bars, and everything in between, Munson has seen plenty of the country that influences his songwriting. He is a listener first, soaking up the subtleties of stylistic differences of players from rural Mississippi to St. Paul, Minnesota. He studies the mastery of past heroes like Fred McDowell and Charlie Christian as well as living legends like Jimmy “Duck” Holmes and Leo Kottke.

Averaging a minimum of 150+ shows a year in small towns and urban areas alike, Munson loves to play music for people. His song-writing leaves much to interpretation and continues to evolve through new collaborations and the passing of time. Even he is not sure what genre best describes his work but that has not stopped others from noticing. He has been mentioned in magazines including Smithsonian, Guitar Player and No Depression. He has also been invited to appear at the Vancouver Folk Music Festival, the Montreal International Jazz Festival, and the Bentonia Blues Festival among many other notable appearances and accolades.
