Mickey Singh

Born in Hoshiarpur, Punjab, Mickey began singing at the age of 3. At the age of 13, Mickey moved to the United States with his family, where he explored his musical creativity and developed an artistic blend of South Asian and Western sounds. With support from his family to pursue his artistic passion he recognized the importance of heritage and culture no matter where you might live in the world.

At the age of 15, he started working in an American studio. At the same time he went to school for Mixing , to learn the art of music. During this time he only worked with American producers and learned how the sound system works. Meanwhile, he continued listening to Bollywood music at home. He felt the urge to connect with both Indian and American genres because of his stay in India during his formative years. He also felt that this type of genre needed to be developed because it can cater to a wide audience.

On July 22, 2013 he released an EP titled “Mick’s Tape” which included ten songs in which he incorporated a blend of western sounds and Indian vocals.
