Mike McCarthy

"If you want to learn how to pray, go to sea". - Old Portuguese Proverb
It's the polarity of life really, a romantic concept to set sail on the blue yonder yet a treacherous mission in it's reality. Such is the journey of John William Tate, a farmer come sailor who leaves for the ocean in search of life beyond the ordinary.
Mike McCarthy is the vessel from which this story is spun, a singing/guitar playing balladeer. In THE HARROWING ACCOUNT OF JOHN WILLIAM TATE (McCarthy's latest musical offering), the story unfolds through a folky, even colonial feel at times. This is the fifth cd release for Mike and he continues to travel, perform and write."McCarthy’s 4th full length album is a cracker.an accomplished release, deserves to be heard by anyone who loves a heartfelt journey as part of their music experience.”(Kevin Bull - Reverb Magazine)“… this is really accomplished songwriting, and the latter versions i've heard have been bang-on sublime. Looking forward to more.”(Steph Hughes - Home&Hosed presenter, Triple J)View Mike McCarthy's EPK
