MICK PAYNE UPDATE:Last updated 3/2012My new recording studio is currently being built and will be completed by April 2012. I'm looking forward to the flexibility this will allow for writing and production of new music.
The all acoustic CD I've been working on has been temporarily delayed. I'm hoping to have new music to share sometime in 2012. It sounds crazy but some of the things that I love most (my music) are often pushed back by those things liked the least.
Keep checking back because I will be updating. Stay with me, I've rolled on with the music my entire and life and that will never change.
The roots of my music all evolved from acoustic writing and performance.
The tribute song to my father, "Soul of a Man" will be part of this compilation.
This project will reflect the sound that has shaped and characterized my
music throughout the years. Feel free to navigate through my web site.
*I have recently added some music that was recorded in Nashville a few years ago. Although never released, some great music with the Nashville feel. All original, locked and loaded, "Fools Gold" and "Just Loving you" Cheers!

The CD
Have you ever taken a long trip and then looked back at the miles behind you? It's called life. Along the way, you are vaguely aware that time is moving, Only now you realize how quickly it's passing. The journey is changing everything; shaping who you are.
Mick Payne could not have written Coincidental Day until now. A million memories had to be gathered and tucked away. He had to experience a significant piece of life before he could separate the things that matter from those that don't.
Mick Payne's musical epiphany was influenced by gospel, R&B, pop and the classic sounds of jazz. Coincidental Day didn't just happen by accident. It was inevitable and, as it turns out, a memorable stop along the way.
Coincidental Day is a smooth and seductive collection of eleven original and soulful songs delivered with passion, strength and conviction. His music is timeless and will undoubtedly find a special place with you.

About Mick
While attending Bowling Green State University, Mick Payne performed as a guitar soloist in pubs and on the college circuit. He developed a playing style that showcased his strong, earthy vocals in a way that made an impression and left behind a memory with those who listened.
Manhood brought wisdom and wisdom gave birth to new ways of expression through words of his own. It is not by accident that Coincidental Day was chosen as the title of Mick’s debut album on US20 Records. This song...
