About Mick James

Mick James are quite simply the most experienced and professional wedding entertainers in the Canary Islands.  Since forming 7 years ago in Lanzarote, they have performed at more than 700 weddings besides their busy schedule of concerts, benefits, television and radio appearances.

Appearing most often as a duo, with Mick Bennett on guitar and vocals, James Lynch on upright bass and vocals, their live shows combine a large concert sound with the urgency and excitement of a small club.  If you close your eyes, you would think you are listening to a 4 or 5 piece band.

Both Mick and James have been songwriters all their lives and have recently released an album of their own compositions.  A member of two-time Grammy nominated group the Moody Brothers, James has since worked with John Carter Cash, Tony Joe White, Elliott Murphy and Flaco Jimenez.  A native of Dublin, Mick has had the opportunity to work with the likes of Christy Dignam of Aslan, Irish legend Jimmy McCarthy, Paul Young, Brian Downey from Thin Lizzy and Irish blues star Don Baker.

With James´ North American roots and Mick´s Irish origins, their style is an original blend of country, rock, Irish and folk - but they can touch upon all other musical styles as well...  They are extremely listenable and danceable, and you will always want to sing along.

Mick James also appear in the format of a 3, 4, or 5 piece band, with the addition of your choice of electric guitar, keyboards, saxophone and drums.
