Bio
Live Performance
The Mike McCarthy Band: with their blend of Southern Rock, Alternative Country and Americana, it makes them hard to pigeonhole, but easily accessible to anyone who loves good music. With Terry Martell (drums), Len Fligg (bass), Gabor Szepesi (keys), Tony Moretta (lead guitar) you have all the ingredients that makes fire burn. The band’s secret weapon, and the force that pulls all of its diverse influences together, is the voice of Mike McCarthy, an expressive instrument brimming with gritty soul combine that with the sweet harmonies of Erica Prinn-McCarthy you have a hard driving yet melodic sound that is irresistible to the ear and to dancing feet!
