Mike Mobley
Bio
Originally from Celina, Ohio, Mike Mobley is a natural talent with the rare combination of musical ability, lyrical integrity and hit production sense. After years of listening to his father practice guitar, he taught himself to play by ear, even if it was accidentally left-handed and upside down. The untraditional approach did not stop him from becoming a versatile musician because he became an in-demand talent on the club circuit while still in his teens. After a few more years of playing gigs at night and writing jingles for local companies during the day, Mike came to the attention of Country Music artists Chely Wright and Rachel Proctor, who both recruited him for their road bands. Mike decided to pursue songwriting as a full-time career after both (Wright and Proctor) recorded his songs for their albums and the advice from his brother, hit songwriter Wendell Mobley.
Since moving to Nashville in 2004, Mike Mobley has had cuts and singles recorded by Martina McBride, Luke Bryan, Jason Aldean, Kenny Chesney, Boyz 2 Men, Jewel, Chicago, Trace Adkins, Rodney Atkins, Brantley Gilbert, Emerson Drive, The Judd’s, Joe Nichols, Chuck Wicks, Clay Walker, Rascal Flatts and Natasha Bedingfield, including their duet single, “Easy” which became Rascal Flatts' fifth AC Top 20 hit. He also penned a Christmas song on Duck Dynasty’s Christmas album, Duck The Halls (A Robertson Family Christmas).
