About Me.
Who am I?

Musical Background
My name is Mike Budny and I am originally from Michigan, the “downriver” area. I currently reside in Minnesota with my wife (Leslie), daughter (Celine), and son (Devin).
My day job is in the retail corporate operations field and outside of work I enjoy cars, racing, gaming, and - of course - music.

My ”official” music background started in the early 90s as a kid learning drum rudiments and marching in drum corps. I quickly graduated to playing set and continue to call the drums my main musical talent.
In high school and college I played drums in a number of local Michigan bands and eventually moved to playing guitar and singing on a handful of recordings and few live shows with my brother, Chris.
Even though this would never be a profession for me, I always wanted to have a “legit” release available to the public right beside professional musicians. In 2019, I released my first single (1-2-3 Go) and in 2020 my first album (Bucket List).

Latest Work
After releasing a few singles and one album, I stepped away from assembling ”full feature” music for a while but continued to compose music as a hobby.
After accumulating a few polished tracks it was time to decide what to do with them. I have started releasing some of these tracks as instrumental singles and continue to work on new material to release over time, potentially in another full length album.
Artist Profile and Distribution
I create my music using a combination of live instruments, keyboards, and virtual instruments. Recording and mixing is done in GarageBand, final mastering and distribution is done utilizing LANDR - a great toolset and publishing service for artists, especially independent ones like myself.
