Mike & Amy Aiken

Americana, Roots, Country... With an Ocean View

These life partners and licensed sea captains have logged over 30,000 bluewater-miles
crossing the seas and even more criss-crossing countries, living the life that informs their songs and stories.

On stage, Mike’s earthy voice and masterful work on assorted guitars are perfectly matched by Amy’s sweet harmonies and tasty percussion and drums. Through their accomplished songwriting, storytelling and instrumentation, Mike and Amy invite audiences to share their lived adventure and their genuine humanity. Audiences invariably say ‘yes!”

The Aikens have produced seven nationally and internationally-recognized albums and appeared in concert venues, clubs and festivals across North America and Europe.
