International recording Artist Josh Hartys (https://www.joshharty.com/) career as both a frontman and a solo artist uniquely qualify him to share the lime light with Mike. Josh and Mike have been friends for 20 years, and this collaboration kicks off a new era of them finally making music in the same band.Supporting Mike & Friends will be Door County folk duo Wagon Roots who will open both shows, and solo virtuoso guitarist Chip Cruz from Madison who will play between sets. This not to miss production is only running twice. An 8-piece party band with a Grateful Dead twist: Mike & Friends has been gigging for more than decade around Wisconsin.
