Mike Breen Music
Mike Breen began his musical career in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania playing guitar and singing bluegrass music with his best friend Kenny Thompson. After a few years at Penn State University studying creative writing and playing with the "Magnificent Truckstop Band”, Mike moved to Phoenix, Arizona and immediately got a gig in a folk duo called 'Smith and Breen' performing at the Salt Cellar restaurant.
Through the years Mike has met many musicians and songwriters including Darcie Deaville with whom he collaborated on stage and in the studio and co-wrote her Kerrville winning song 'Icy Barrel of a Loaded Gun' and
Jessi Colter with whom Mike had the pleasure of working on her
"Out Of The Ashes" Album.
Currently, you can find Mike performing at the Rusty Spur Saloon in Old Town Scottsdale, AZ and doing concerts at such prestigious venues like the MIM - Musical Instrument Museum - featuring material from his latest release “Fancy Balloons.”
