Mike got his start
playing professionally in 1964 in Kansas. He then moved to Wichita and
travelled the country with The Serfs. It was during a trip to New York City
that Mike recorded with Jimi Hendrix, a session that resulted in the legendary
release "Electric Ladyland."
In 1972, Michael formed
Finnigan and Wood. In 1975, Mike put down roots in Los Angeles where he pursued
more group and solo recordings while at the same time touring and recording
with Crosby, Stills and Nash, Dave Mason, Etta James, Dr John, Carlos Santana,
Joe Cocker, and Bonnie Raitt.
He is twice a winner of a
Blues Music Award (formerly W.C. Handy Award) for his work with Taj Mahal.
Finnigan has always been
active politically and was, for several years, a regular contributor to the
weblog Crooks and Liars.
