Mike Turner<br />
Christmas<br />
I’m happy with the result – to me, the song captures<br />
the vibe of the genre and the scenes of the holiday I<br />
was aiming for. My recording of the song has<br />
garnered some radio and Internet streaming play<br />
over the past two holiday seasons – but I’d love to<br />
hear what a more accomplished vocalist, with a fuller<br />
arrangement, might bring to the piece. All you classic<br />
pop/jazz vocalists/recording artists out there, you<br />
know the present you can give me – and, Christmas<br />
is coming…<br />
Bio:<br />
Mike Turner retired to the U.S. Gulf Coast after a<br />
27-year career as a Federal law enforcement<br />
executive. While he grew up in a musical family,<br />
Mike had never pursued performing or<br />
songwriting – until an adult education class in<br />
ukulele ignited long-dormant musical yearnings, and<br />
he’s never looked back. In the past 7 years, Mike’s<br />
completed over 120 original songs, from blues to<br />
folk, country and gospel. His recordings have<br />
received radio and Internet streaming play in the<br />
U.S., UK, Europe, New Zealand and on the Armed<br />
Forces Radio Network. Mike was named 2016 Male<br />
Gospel Entertainer of the Year by the Alabama Music<br />
Association; and 2017 Male Gospel Entertainer of the<br />
Year by the North America Country Music<br />
Associations Interantional (NACMAI).<br />
