Mike
Byrnes is an accomplished finger-style guitarist with
many years of playing experience. About 4 years ago Mike
decided to put together a show that would showcase the
talent of the musicians local to the area. Mike spoke to
the local Cablevision Company to find out what was
necessary to produce a show on the local cable access
channel. After taking a short course, The "Guitar Show"
was born. It started out with just Mike himself but he
soon found out that he could only fill up but so many
shows. At that point Mike reached out to the local
musician scene and recruited some player friends of his
to come on the show as guests. The show soon began to
snowball and Mike began attracting some Big Name Artists.
Mike has recorded over 200 shows and has a potential
viewing audience of 4,000,000 people in 3 states.
