Mike Farris' sophomore release Salvation In Lights was released in late June of 2007 on INO/Columbia Records. A mix of traditional New Orleans black gospel, southern roots music and original compositions that are reinvented with various influences ranging across the board from Memphis Stax and blue eyed soul to groove laden rock & roll. Critical acclaim has come from all sectors of the music industry and has found its way to the Americana, Christian, AAA and indie fan alike.
Farris was the former lead singer and writer for Southern Blues Boogie band The Screamin' Cheetah Wheelies and has been peforming for over a decade. He has found his true voice with this roots music and his live performances solidfy his credibility as an artist that deserves recognition. |
