ER Nurse Turns Singer-Songwriter During Pandemic

The Mike Jones Band, ER nurse, singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist pursued his passion for music during the pandemic+writes, produces and records his own music, appealing to several audiences, ranging from acoustic-folksy-Americana to simple roots-rock music that leaves listeners with “that song they can’t get out of their heads.” Musically versatile with a unique voice that embodies real life experience, Mike just released Wild Heart (Calamity Jane)Don’t Give Up on Me, and Strongest One I Know with more to come.

Jones says, “I was always sitting in a corner or in the parking lots where me and my friends would often escape to and play guitar. I’ve been writing songs since I was 13 years old. My first band was called “map factory” because we used to rehearse in an old factory that made maps.”
