Mike Pinto

Mike Pinto has crafted an exceptional style of songwriting with a truly unique take on Roots Vintage Rock Reggae Ska and Classic Surf but it’s his distinct voice and seamless storytelling that has brought him success both in the United States and overseas.

 

With the release of his debut album (Little District, 2005) Pinto began his attack on the Philadelphia music scene as a solo artist. By 2006 underground success and a fervent exploding fan base empowered him to expand westward with two nationwide solo acoustic tours. After the second tour Pinto relocated to San Diego where he immersed himself in the thriving Southern California music scene and quickly gained notoriety. His infectious sound garnered so much attention that Insomnia Radio included his single “One More Time” on a hard hitting compilation of the SoCal sound’s brightest groups including DI and Slightly Stoopid. In very short order Mike Pinto transitioned from a kid from Philly playing acoustic in coffee houses and tiny bars to a prominent fixture on the SoCal music scene.
