info:
Mike Hale's first album came out on Asian Man and was a great debut album. With the release of "Lives Like Mine", Mike has outdone himself. The recording sounds perfect. The backing vocals (provided by Allyson Seconds, Kevin's wife) remind me Juliana Hatfield backing Evan Dando back when they were both in the Lemonheads. Mike writes from the heart writing beautifully melancholy songs. I can think of very few artists that write the way Mike does and we are so honored to have released this album.

"Lives Like Mine" follows up where "Broken With No Hope" leaves off taking the listener through a very personal albeit heart-wrenching journey. Mike's music is so beautiful and this recording has Mike playing a number of songs on piano as well as acoustic guitar. Fans of Mike's last album will not be disappointed.
