MIKE MARTINEZ
VOCALS & KEYBOARDS

Mike has been singing since the age of 2, and sang his first onstage solo at the age of 6. He began to teach himself to play piano when he was 12, and played his first paying job at the tender age of 13. Since then he has taken just about any music/entertainment job he could get his hands on, including Karaoke host, Bar-piano player ala Billy Joel, wedding DJ, and countless singer/keyboardist jobs with bands that played funk, country, jazz, rock, soul, Motown and alternative. He has even worked as a singing telegram messenger!

With all the experiences Mike has had, he never gave up his dream of joining the right band. A band that was not only strong instrumentally, but vocally as well. A band that could span decades and genres to deliver a unique energy-packed performance. Well, sometimes dreams do come true. Mike is now living his dream as the new voice of metro Detroit's hottest party band, The G-Daddys!

Mike previously attended Eastern Michigan University on a full vocal scholarship, where he studied music education. He now attends the University of Michigan fulltime in the school of Engineering. His hobbies include golf, tennis, frisbee, hackey-sack, raquetball, movies, reading, billiards, and working on his far from finished novel.
