Mike Dawes first came across our stream of consciousness when we find his amazing video of "The Impossible" on YouTube.
The song, from his album What Just Happened?, showcases his innate melodic instinct and incredible guitar prowess.
Hailing from the UK, Dawes just finished a U.S. tour and spends much of his time as the lead guitar player for Justin Hayward of the Moody Blues.
Dawes has recorded with and sessioned for multiple grammy award-wining artists, appeared on film soundtracks, TV adverts and achieved viral YouTube hits in the millions.
