About the Artist

Hey all - Mike and Kirsty here from MK Acoustic! We are a Greater Manchester based duo ready to play a wide variety of great tunes to fit your venues needs. Whether that just be a simple and relaxed set up of acoustic guitar and tambourine for a chilled out afternoon vibe, or a good old big sing along/ dance floor filling set with the full works of stomp pedal and drumming sample pad to really bring that evening energy! Over 2026, we have played a real mixture of venues and events, from jam packed Irish bars such as Dirty O’Sullivans and Mulligans Upstairs/ Downstairs, throwing in a good mix of classic tunes and Irish must-do’s, sunny afternoons on the Oast House main stage to a packed out courtyard playing those feel good tunes, to heading down the M62 to hit the stage at Rita’s Beerhall & Ballroom to soundtrack a whole evening of table dancing, and Manchester City’s Match Day hospitality suites accompanying fans pre and post match with simple easy listening tunes. We absolutley love the variety of the venues we play and the different styles and genres that come along with it. Thanks for taking the time to check out our profile and hopefully we will have chance to play for you! Mike and Kirsty - MK Acoustic.
