Mike Rickard is a singer/songwriter who calls Atlanta, GA home. Mike grew up in church, went to a private Christian school from kindergarten until graduation, went to bible \college, sang contemporary Christian music...then came out.
After coming out, he attended church for several months, but ultimately stepped away because the messages he was hearing didn’t resonate or accept who he was all along. He also stopped singing for several years, thinking, "What do I have to sing about?" Turns out, a lot! And that's when he began writing music...to tell stories.
Through all of the changes in life, music has been a constant, whether listening, writing or performing. Mike says, “It has given me so many wonderful moments, and maybe even helped save my life. Music can make us laugh, cry, dance, escape, deal with the issues in our lives. And if I do it right, I will hopefully help you do these things depending on the day and the song.”
Mike has released three full-length records and one remix EP. His latest, Out Loud, was released in 2018. He is married to his husband, Eric. They met in 2000 and married in early 2020. Their kids are furry 4 legged dogs and cats whom through the years have been much loved.
