“I often get asked why” said Mike “how come you want to do this “ and the answer is simple, I love the music.”

After performing in theatre for many years Mike decided to combine his love of acting and music together and create the Whispering Jack Tribute.

“I wanted the show to be a interactive event with the audience, not just a knock out the songs and hope the people like it type thing, but a special evening where people could be entertained not just by the music but with a touch of comedy and history about John as well…It’s a fun night”.

With any tribute show you sometimes get the critics that want to pick a show apart, so with Whispering jack Mike took the advice of his singing coach Lindsay Field and added his own interpretation to a lot of the material so that instead of just comparing the two artists, people actually get a chance to acknowledge Mikes own true ability as one of Australia’s finest voices.
