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 />
