“When lovers of Canadian folk and country lament the loss of homegrown giants like Ian Tyson, Gordan Lightfoot, and the great Stompin’ Tom Connors, they need look no further than Mike lynch to find that same country steeped spirit and gifted storytelling ability. Many of Lynch’s songs cast a nod to the lagacy of those greats- but make no mistake , Mike’s songs are born from his own experience, travels and deep love of the country he travels in.” Recently written article by Maury Wrubleski of Discover Humbolt news in Saskatchewan.

Robin MacIntyre, Black Fly Jam Presents! Sault Ste. Marie ON, with a recent full review …
“I recently had the great luck to see several consecutive shows with Mike Lynch. I was totally enthralled by his performance – it both energized and thoroughly entertained!
Mike’s original songs and guitar style channel a musical familiarity, one that sits at the edge of our generation’s memory; think old-timey country rhymes like Hank and Merle, or John Prine’s stories of moments of time and place, but without the vocal pathos or musical simplicity of these artists. His singing voice is highly listenable, with clear intonation and a commanding range. Mike treats his guitar like an old friend on stage – with great acumen and comfort, they are paired well as one voice. Stories unfold with quick and witty truths, based on a well-spring of observation as a travelling troubadour. Songs of heros and the hapless, hopes and dreams, reflections on relationships, and a country of experience. Pride in the lonely beauty of our Canadian landscape, and our nation as an entity underscores it all.
An engaging performance topped with masterful guitar work rooted in these country traditions, and Mike’s own slightly theatrical style of on-stage character, is what brings to mind everything that makes great country music so memorable. It also validates Mike Lynch as an original Canadiana artist with his own unique style, and honest relevant voice.
Mike’s talents and flexible show are equally at home on a festival stage with his trio or duo, or engaged in a solo house concert or pub stage. Do yourself a favour and catch him soon at a show nearby! You won’t be disappointed, he’s the real thing.“
