Sol's Double Nickel Day w/Rosedale

My name is Mike and I am a workaholic. I started this alternative-rock band in 2004 called Rosedale, and I'm still all about it. I usually put together a team of musicians and travel around north America playing shows and inspiring kids young and old. Sometimes, when I can't assemble a team, I'll do it myself! I love what I do and I'm proud to say that I'm finally able to make it my living. Music has always been a part of my life. I can still remember getting my first cassette tapes when I was four years old and jumping on beds learning how to sing along and perform to them when nobody was around. My family was very surprised the odd times I'd come out of my shell and sing along to the Weird Al tape word for word in the car. I always wanted to learn to play guitar, but my mom forced me and my brother to learn piano first, to gain a better understanding of music. And I'm glad she did.
