Description
Mike Bloomer provides a unique blend of classical, jazz, and popular music into one performance on the cello and the classical guitar. While performing with high quality performance tracks Mike can switch from Sting to Beethoven in a moments notice. The goal is to provide the listener with quality and variety in every show. Currently Mike is developing new material for his listeners which includes big hits from "Steely Dan", Frank Sinatra, and Pat Metheny among other artists. The cello is the instrument performed most due to its "provocative" sound and versitality. In fact, the cello can sound like a bass with the low notes and a violin with the high notes. The guitar is used to provide extra variety in the show. Clients that hear Mike perform often tell him how much they enjoyed the performance and their lives were touched by the music. Mike puts his heart and soul into every note!

Feedback
- Mike did a wonderful job performing for my wedding. He was also more than happy to meet with me prior to the wedding date to go over music selections and choices, and to calm my nerves. Everything about the experience was more than satisfactory! -- Sarah F, Longwood, FL, 5/15/2010
- When the predominant question from the guests at your event was “where did you get this guy… and “can you please give me his contact information”, you know that you’ve made the right choice. Mike is not only an excellent talent but a pleasure to work with. Mike had a great sense of pace and his music moved with the event (and helped move the event) from blending into the background during reception and dinner to elevating the mood and spirit by blending with the guests in an uplifting post dinner celebration. The most telling statement is that by the time I posted these comments, Mike had already been booked by one of my guests for their own function. -- Greg W, Winter Park, FL, 5/22/2010
- Mike was professional and very nice. He is very talented at several instuments and I will definatley hire him for my parties again! -- Marisa F, Oviedo, FL, 12/16/2011
