Enter the sonic realm of Mike Conde, a powerhouse Lead Guitarist, Singer, and Songwriter. His music is more than a melody; it's a protest, a rallying cry, and a cinematic journey through life's highs and lows.
With a musical journey spanning over a decade, Mike, alongside his collaborator and drummer Rude E, has transformed raucous poetry into a unique rock style. It's an intelligent, minimalist, and brutally honest working-class aesthetic where beauty and darkness engage in a lyrical dance.
Originally from the Northside of Houston, TX, Mike's sound reflects the gritty bluster of big city life and the raw truth of growing up in a tight-knit community. His time as the guitarist for the metal band Drive in the rugged parts of Los Angeles added another layer to his musical identity, contributing to the Zoo Entertainment/BMG release, Diablero, featuring the poignant track "Once Again."
Armed with two full-length solo albums ("Back on the Street," "The Windows…"), an EP ("Four Now"), and a searing take on Gary Moore's "Shapes of Things," Mike has garnered a global fanbase through internet music venues and radio stations. From the grassroots of his hometown to the international stage, he stands tall as a respected songwriter, storyteller, and performer.
