About Me

Mikey is a singer songwriter based in Essex, UK. Not classically trained, Mikey is self taught and has been writing songs for most of his life. His music is guitar based acoustic indie and his gritty but beautiful lyrics express his real life experiences and emotions.

Another string to his bow, Mikey recently co-hosted the instant cult hit and real time internet show In the Attic with Rachel Fuller and Pete Townshend. The show included live music, witty rhetoric and guest appearances from established musicians and celebrities. In The Attic toured across Europe and the USA with the Who webcasting live by satelitte from their 32 foot shiny airstream.

  • “Mikey has a lot of Ronnie Lane about him, a gentleness that belies his great power.”
    Pete Townshend
    “[Mikey] Cuthbert drew comparisons to former Faces bassist Ronnie Lane with ‘Plasticine’ from his Invisible EP.”
    Attic Jam, Hotel Café - Hollywood, CA - Nov. 7, 2006
    Review by Jeff Elbel, Paste Magazine
    In the Attic: “Last night saw a band called The Kooks in their studio, which set off some jamming between them and Pete Townshend and eventually resulted in Rachel Fuller and co presenter Mikey Cuthbert breaking out in Bowie's Kooks. And maybe then that's the best way to sum it up. A couple of kooks, enjoying themselves, on the road, from the road with a flurry of guests”

    “He’s a fantastic singer-songwriter with a strong, pure voice. The man has got unbelievable vocal and guitar chops.”
