Mike Stevens
Mike's solo act is as unique as his career. His looping techniques on the harmonica have been copied by many in the musical world, and he has captivated audiences everywhere. Mike has been a regular at the Grand Ole Opry with the likes of Jim and Jesse, The Carter Family and Bill Monroe, to name a few, and he was instrumental in establishing Arts Can Circle, taking musical instruments to the far north and setting up lending libraries for native youth.

As a solo entertainer, and with countless musicians, Mike's journey has taken him across the globe. With a history taking him to the deepest roots of traditional bluegrass, Mike has been a regular at the Grand Ole Opry with the likes of Jim and Jesse, The Carter Family and Bill Monroe, to name a few.
For the past eight years, Mike has become more recognizable in his home country of Canada, equally for his talent and his journeys to the most remote corners of the frozen north. Mike has taken instruments and set-up lending libraries in some of the most desperate places on the planet to offer a creative choice to at-risk native youth. Through this work, Arts Can Circle was born.
