Mike Bendy
BIO
Born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Mike grew up listening to many diverse styles of music. Since hearing Jimi Hendrix's performance of the 'Star Spangled Banner' from the Montery Pop Festival when he was four years of age he knew that music was his calling. Mike has eschewed formal education and is a self-taught musician. His skills are unparalleled, being a member of such highly acclaimed musical groups such as the Bendy Effect, Resolution15 and the Hipster Assassins, which include Julius and Felix Pastorius, both sons of the legendary bassist Jaco Pastorius.
After graduating Warwick Valley Highschool Mike quickly snuck in and became friends with the 55 Bar staff and became a regular, taking in the sound of David Binney every other Tuesday of the month and the weekly Thursday night Wayne Krantz trio with Tim Lefvere and Keith Carlock on drums. That, in effect, was his musical education.
