The Brink Lounge
About Mike: Mike went to UW-Madison on a music clinic scholarship back in the '80s, having soloed several times with both the Madison Memorial and WI Youth Symphonies. He was a collegiate rowing coach for 14 years, including three stints as an assistant at UW, and is currently a full time realtor. But with the rise in popularity of acts like "Two Cellos" he has been reinvigorated to start playing again, only this time it's classic rock instead of classical! Mike is excited to join with Tracy & Alan and Top Shelf in this new adventure! About the venue: The Brink Lounge is an elegant yet cozy environment with great wines, cocktails, and small plate food items. Great date night location! |
