The Mike LaBroi Band Jazz Band from Gary, IN

Mike LaBroi has been playing guitar and performing professionally for over 25 years. He began playing guitar at age 9 by learning Motown tunes from neighbor's, Tito Jackson (of the Jackson 5), Raynard Jones, David Gardener and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Musician Wilton Crump. He graduated with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Music Education in 1979. It was at Lincoln University where Mike developed his love for jazz and blues. Having the opportunity to play with some of his teachers on the weekend, he could actually apply the theory he'd learned in class. After college Mike began to “pay his dues” by playing locally in assorted venues throughout Northwest Indiana. He played with local greats such as Billy Foster, and then later formed his own band. Later, Mike moved to the music-rich scene of Minneapolis, Minnesota. While there, he played with their local greats including, Frank Hooks (jazz trombonist formerly of the Count Basie Band) and internationally known Jack Mc Duff (jazz organist that helped launch the careers of George Benson, Henry Johnson, Mark Whitfield and many others). Mike had a regular jazz set at recording artist Prince's club “The Glam Slam” on Sunday nights in Minneapolis Minnesota. Through the seasoned development of his music and his style, Mike LaBroi manages a perfect blend of the art and business into his music.
