Mike is the co-founder and former guitarist of the multi-platinum Sony/Columbia Records band Our Lady Peace, as well as
a three-time Juno Award winner and a four-time Much Music Video Award winner. He toured the world extensively for eight
years before his growing interest in production--inspired by his work with producers Arnold Lanni (Our Lady Peace, Simple
Plan, Finger Eleven) and Bob Rock (Our Lady Peace, Metallica, The Cult)--got the best of him, and Mike decided to leave
the band to produce and write full-time.
He quickly established himself as a premier source for live recordings, using a streamlined mobile live recording rig of his
own design, and he also built a private recording studio in his home, taking on projects for labels like Capitol/EMI and
Sony.
Mike soon had the itch to build a "real" recording studio, and he partnered with kindred music industry veterans Mari Dew
and Trevor Kustiak to launch The Pocket Studios.

About The Pocket
The combined effect of a group of individuals can be greater than the sum of their individual parts.
At The Pocket Studios, we've created a recording studio environment that evokes and encourages creativity and
collaboration in our clients. This artistic surrounding is professional yet spontaneous, modern but still down-to-earth.
From the quickest demos to the largest album projects, we're equally passionate about everything we do and everyone
that enters The Pocket environment. This is not your typical recording studio...
