Mike's Obituary






From the Palamino Club in Hollywood to the Frontier in Las Vegas to the Main Stage at the Grand Ole Opry, Mike has introduced his own style of bluegrass to thousands of people throughout America. Then he returned to his hinterlands of Kansas City and was performing the traditional bluegrass music he fell in love with all those years ago. A professional show mixed with good clean comedy allows Mike to say, "Goodnight" to standing crowds at nearly every performance.

Barry Willis wrote, America's Music, A history of bluegrass in the words of it's pioneers.He included performers such as Bill Monroe, Flatt/Scruggs and Ralph Stanley and not surprisingly, Mike O'Roark. Mike confessed in the book that even at 16 years old when his friends were listening to the Beatles, he preferred bluegrass. Mike stays true to his roots today playing festivals throughout the country.
