Mike Balzarini

Dog dad. Multi-instrumentalist with an education in audio engineering. I've been writing songs for a long time.

I've been lucky to surround myself with music, working across many facets of the music industry for the majority of my adult life. I started writing in my early teens, and I'm largely writing in the same genre despite being decades older now. I grew up (musically, at least) in the 90's and 00's, while heavily influenced by the music of my parents' generation. I pick the Who over Zep, Green Day over Blink; it's no wonder I went the path of writing a rock musical!

​

Over the last 20 years I've gone from stage performer, to pit musician, to music director. While I've sketched out other ideas for shows, See The Light is my first finished musical. I take great pride in writing all of the music, demoing all of the material on my own (recording, playing/singing, mixing), and writing the script. I love the process, and look forward to moving into a collaborative phase to bring this vision to the stage.
