Mike O'Brien: General Info

I play in a band called Ideal Lovers, and usually if I'm performing
a show with a band, they're playing with me. Ideal Lovers are Zac DeCamp, David Payant, Joe Grass, and whenever possible, Josh Toal and Mike Evin. Friends also come out to play whenever their schedules permit. Pierre-Yves Martel on double-bass, Darryn Grandbois on mandolin and guitars, John Carroll on guitars and lap steel, Jennifer Thiessen on viola, Assaf Shatil on piano, and Yvan Binette on bass.

 

Influences:

Generally whatever would grace the stage on Austin City Limits,
give or take a few... Bluegrass can freak me out any day of the week;
love country-blues, and Ry Cooder is genius. Nick Cave, Tom Waits,
Gillian Welch and David Rawlings. Angus and Malcolm. Guy Van Duser.

 

Sounds Like:

Meat and potatoes. Acoustic guitar (lots of fingerpicking),
some singing, and some friends backing it up, mostly on
acoustic instruments.
