MIKE OFFICER

The M.O.B.

About Me

The Mike Officer Band (The M.O.B.) has recently emerged from the depths of Hollywood... fellow students at the Musician’s Institute who came together to form The M.O.B. in early 2007. Performing an eclectic mixure of Soul influenced groove with Indie sentiments, the sound is a tasty blend, somewhere in between Jeff Buckley, Soulive and Van Morrison.
A few humble accomplishments... Mike Officer was the winner of the 2007 San Diego Songwriter’s Guild Songwriting Contest and in September '07, the M.O.B. was the featured performer at the Musician's Institute Graduation Ceremony. In January of '08 the band toured the American South and Midwest, opening for the legendary B.B. King.
The songs you hear above are from THE M.O.B. EP as well as Mike's 2006 solo release. Both CD's are available for a donation of your choice. Just send whatever your heart desires, + $2.50 for shipping and handling, through Paypal to [email protected], and be sure to tell us which album you want... You're support is greatly appreciated.If you would like to sign up for The M.O.B. mailing list, please feel free to do so at [email protected]...
We'll see you soon, moving and grooving you. Let's get the party started... Come join the family...
