Sounds Like: If you were watching My Network TV's "Watch Over Me" on 1/25/07 you heard Mike Rofé's song "Slowly" (track 10 on STAND). The whole song played over a brilliantly edited break-up montage. Other Songs Featured on My Network TV Include "Enough" and "Light Rain"

If you have not experienced Rofe’s soulful and sweet blend of humor and introspection on the ruminations of love and the world, you should make your way inside the belly of the goose, pull up a seat, pick your favorite ale, and open your ears.
Ranging in influence from Dylan to Bare Naked Ladies and Elvis to Elvis Costello, Mike Rofé's live performance is rich and superb, full of insight and wisdom, and rounded out with a comedic banter that is as unique as the performer himself.
Outside of his solo performance, Mike Rofé can be found drumming with Hollywood based band "Vekstar" and at the Rainbow Bar and Grill where he books a variety of live music and performers.

Formerly local singer-songwriter Mike Rofé revealed the theme behind his mix: “[It’s] seeing things for what they are as they apply to our friends, our lovers, our situations and ourselves. This is all stuff I’ve been listening to lately. It’s all pretty great. It gets dark.†L.A.-based Rofé will join the Foreign Cinema and others at the Fox & Goose this Friday. The show starts at 9 p.m. and the cover is $3.
