What Happens As A Session Guitarist

- The words Session Guitarist has always been a magical sound to me. When I was younger I would always wonder what it's like to do a session and be a session guitarist. Let me share my experience.

Mike has been playing the guitar since he was 12 years old, and from that first moment his love affair with music and the instrument began. Fresh out of school at the age of 16 he attended the Academy of Contemporary Music in Guildford and completed a year-long Diploma course.
After finishing the ACM his life as a full time musician began, playing in numerous bands and touring up and down the country playing iconic venues such asThe Shepherds Bush Empire, The Astoria, The Underworld and London’s Jazz Café. He’s also been fortunate enough to support industry legends Paul Weller, Blondie and Katie Melua.
Mike’s session work has led to his working on a variety of projects - from performing with stars such as Ricky Wilson and Diana Vickers, to appearing in many TV shows and adverts. Mike loves being on stage performing, but is equally at home recording in a studio - where he has worked with Alex Von Soos (All Saints, Seal, Atomic Kitten), Mike Horner (The Prodigy, Shakira, Bloc Party), and Mike Chapman (Blondie, Suzi Quatro)

RUclips algorithms letting Mike down. His content and playing has always been top tier
Thank you Luke. Yeah it hasn’t liked me for a while tbh. Any help sharing is always appreciated.
I absolutely love these little snippets of a day in the life as a session player. I hope they help to inspire young people to get involved in session work. Thanks for another great video Mike. Cheers!
Lovely to hear buddy!
crushing the end of that Apocalypse song man
Thank you my man! 😘
Wow that song Apocalypse now is really something special and the guitar solo you played at the end really brought the song to life and the singer is amazing
Thank you Michael, yeah she’s great! Hopefully you get a chance to Karen to the whole track.
Great Performance and Thanks for the message, right you are, serve the song not the ego! Happy New Year, lots of health and happiness in 23!👍
Happy new year!! Thanks for the kind words.
I was feeling that solo! 🙌👍Thanks for the insights into what it's like and what it takes to be a session musician.
Lovely to hear Jason.
Your musical skills and teaching skills are equally good--I love seeing your videos here. Most importantly, I'm glad you are out of your funk and are feeling better.
Thank you buddy, means a lot
That solo was fucking awesome Mike, sooo cool :-)
Thank you Bill!
Great video again mike, really insightful 😊
Thank you Liam, lovely to hear you enjoyed it.
It was great to have you on guitar for the @levinamusic session. You made the song shine!
Aww cheers guys! Always a pleasure!
Love this ❤
Love you!
Great videos
Thank you, really appreciate it.
Good grief, Mike. I still remember swearing never to get one of those newfangled CD thingies cos they would be a flash in the pan like Phillips 2000 video discs. Guess I had the last laugh, lol. Awesome work as ever ;-)
😂🤣😂
Mike, you need to do one of those RUclips streaming concerts again. Those were so fun!
Aww lovely to hear! Will see about doing one in the new year
Good job, my dude! And thanks for the upload. These are great.
Why didn't you take the Hampstead? Haven't been using it as much?
Thanks again and enjoy the holidays.
I used it on my gigs over the weekend. Still use it a lot. I think I didn’t take it as I saw the list of amps the studio had so thought I would just use theirs to save time and less lugging about! Haha
Nice one Mike!! Great work as always! (See what I did there!?!) 😎
Hahaha I sure did!
Lol - I'm old enough to remember when CDs were something you had to do because record stores weren't allocating space for LPs. Also old enough to remember when "sessions" weren't going over to someone's house to record on their home studio. We just called these "jams".
Love the video❤! i learned your blues solo on arcoustic guitar!do you know any songs with a cool riff or solo i can play on arcoustic?
Lovely to hear! Funnily enough was thinking the other day I should do another one like that. Keep an eye out
@@MikeBradleyofficial YES you should defenitly do one of those. 😁
Great video. When they hire you for a session like that are you specifically hired to do singing as well? Or is it strictly guitar playing and the singing just happens when you’re there?
Depends really, it’s always good to be able to say yes so if you do get asked to sing I can pull it off.
I was told session musicians read sheet music, is that true? Did you read sheet music?
Good question, and the answer is no. Check out my recent video with Tim Pierce and he say's the same.
Hey Mike, @1:46 how did you develop your speed?
Thank you for asking. I just play a lot, and always try to make sure my playing is clean, if it sounds sloppy slow, it will be sloppy as you speed it up
Solo..very Ritchie Kotzen :)
Ooh I’ll take that!
Hey Mike, do you need a formal college education for this career?
Good question and no you don’t. It’s great going to a school as it makes you work on your skill as a player, but the main thing is meeting other people and playing with other people.
@Mike Bradley so taking a music class at a community college will suffice?
Thanks Mike, from "Paraflightjoe " on RUclips
Cheers buddy
