Mike DeFoy
Originally from Chicago, I am a self taught, multi-instrumentalist, singer/songwriter. My music has been broadcast and I have developed a substantial following, so much so, that fans know and sing the lyrics to my songs during live performances and I am able to draw a substantial crowd to venues even during week days. When interviewed by industry trade publications, local bands/artists have stated that I am their favorite artist. My songwriting is heavily influenced by the Beatles. I tend to listen to Foreigner, Bad Company, Cheap Trick, .38 Special, The Outfield, Eddie Money, Thin Lizzy and other types of music like this.
My first project “Sky Pilot” was listed along with Aerosmith, Cheap Trick and other top billing, headline acts in the Chicago Tribune. I had hired Butch Vig’s studio (Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, Foo Fighters, etc.) to record the album, which was then subsequently released to radio. To support my existing fan base, I plan to include the phrase “Creator of Chicago’s Sky Pilot Rock and Roll Band” in the advertising campaign. During performances, I do plan to include Sky Pilot songs in addition to tracks from the album. Singles from the current album have only been out for a few weeks and are already playing in 46 countries. I have already surpassed a 1,000,000 person exposure milestone in 7 days, and expect that to grow much higher before the year is even over.
This album was recorded in Hollywood California, best known for clients such as KISS, Tool, Billy Corgan and many other artists. I have hired the best of the best, and spared no expense in this album. Recorded, mixed and mastered by Multi-Grammy award winning talent whose credits also include Foo Fighters, Nine Inch Nails, Muse, Billy Idol and many, many other top talent.
