Mike Dawes

Fabulous show !!! This was my third time seeing Mike Dawes and it was the best show yet. The person sitting next to me was a first timer and he was blown away by Mike's mastery of the guitar.

He’s fantastic!

Super simpatico e dal talento straordinario... è un privilegio poter godere dell'arte di un musicista del genere....

He is a PHENOMINAL GUITAR PLAYER, AND SO IS TOMMY EMMANUEL, BILLY STRINGS, AND MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE TOOL

Always entertaining and fantastic s a whole, but way too short at twenty minutes before be takes over in his role backing up Justin Heyward.

Mike was fantastic. He had a really short opening show and then played with Justin and others as part of the headline act. Super energetic and willing to chat & autograph items for sale. He's a must see if you're even a passing fan of the music. It's a great location, but the seats are low and the location is pretty old, so the seats aren't really made for folks 6' and up. You'll survive, but it's not super comfortable. It's a wonderful location though. Great sound and a beautiful space. Finding drinks & restrooms isn't a problem and there is plenty of room for folks to move around during any intermissions.

Primarily I was there for Justin Hayward, so having Mike as the opener was a really great bonus. It's difficult to find complimentary words for what Mike does since they've all been used so many times before, so all I would say is just go see him and experience the amazing playing and great fun interaction with the audience for yourself and find your own words. Given a choice, I would have loved a longer set from both Mike and Justin, but that just means I'm going to have to see them both again the next time they're here - either together or on their own

Excellent showman, and a great guitarist for the great Justin Hayward. An incredible show. This is a must see.

Einsame Spitze! Ein Konzert voller Energie und Spielfreude. Toller Sound, überragende Gitarrenkunst und prickelnde Performance. Mit geschlossenen Augen hatte man teilweise den Eindruck einer 6-8 köpfigen Band!

Outstanding, incredible, off the scale. Ridiculously good guitarist, world class performance yet in the most intimate setting imaginable… can’t wait to see him again.

Mike is not only a virtuoso but quite the funny raconteur. A thoroughly fabulous evening. Mike is highly recommended!

Mike was completely on Friday night. Iridium is a great venue for him. Great performance and lots of engagement with the audience. Sold-out show and 2 encores. Crowd was super appreciative. Come back soon, Mike.

Why the heck do you ask for photographs when they are strictly forbidden? Mike always puts on a great show and has a great stage presence with the audience. It's always fun to see and hear him and seeing Tommy Emmanuel was an added surprise bonus.

Is there a more charismatic and talented guitarist out there? Loved watching the performance and sharing some conversation after.

Mike has an exciting personality that transforms an audience into a good mood. His honest modesty shines through and makes us laugh while he brilliantly plays his guitar as his won orchestra. He grooves, he moves, and puts us in moods. Bravo to Mike Dawes. Looking forward to seeing you again.

Great show. Mike Dawes is a natural entertainer and extremely talented guitarist. His guest Yasmin Williams has her own unique style. They closed the show together, great stuff.

Mike is always awesome

One of the new breed of guitarists born from the womb of YouTube, Mike Dawes offers a form of virtuosity that has to be seen in the flesh. His guitar work is sublime and offers an auditory and visual feast for music lovers, but especially guitar lovers. He taps, strums, finger picks and drums on his guitar, using it as a mere tool to convey his musical emotions. His fast and frantic compositions are pure theatre but his mellow and reflective pieces were, for me, the highlights of his show. By his own admission, he can't sing and he never attempts to sing but when he addresses the audience, it is with the spoken word, and it demonstates a rapport that is comfortable and familiar. This ease with which he engages his audience reinforces the likeableness of the man. Check out his catalog on YouTube and marvel at his skill. Then, come and see him in concert, and smile to yourself as you realize that you've just witnessed a true guitar genius.

Mike is an awesome acoustic guitar player with a great sense of humor. really enjoyed his solo part as opening act and he blended extremely nicely with Justin Hayward. awesome intimate concert experience.

It was an amazing performance! But... This app didn't have the correct address for the venue, made things confusing
