That1Guy's tunes are ‘eargasms' lingering sublimely in your subconscious long after the show end ... All we as an audience could do was sit rapt, mouths gaping, and witness this amazing spectacle
SF BAY GUARDIAN

Wowing audiences from Woodford Folk Festival to the Edinburgh Fringe, Mike Silverman uses a self-taught percussive technique to create a mix of earthy blues, tribal rhythms, future funk and psychedelic beats played 100% live.

In this infectious and inventive one-man show Silverman expertly plucks, bows and slaps the single bass string of his homemade ‘magic pipe' - an almost seven-foot high collage of galvanized steel, duct tape and electronic gadgetry run through an array of samplers and effects.
