Mikeschair hope debut album inspires as well as entertains

Mikeschair are a new band who believe their music demands attention. They're also hoping their new self-titled debut album and radio single, "Can't Take Away" will entertain as well as inspire.

This is because the men of Mikeschair - Mike Grayson, Sam Tinnesz, Jesse Hale, Jon Haire - like to contend that their music inspires action to change the world through love.

Hailing from Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee, this quartet's blend of soulful rock guitars and bass grooves, violin and electronic textures tagged with catchy pop sing-along choruses, undoubtedly compels the listener to step up emotionally and spiritually.

Inquiring minds want to know, what's in the name?

Yes, there really is a chair involved, and yes, it was Mike's.
