Mike Watt Booking Agency Profile

Book Mike Watt for your next corporate event, function, or private party.
Mike Watt, one of the most important players in West Coast punk rock, originally rose to prominence as the Minutemen's distinctive bassist. Watt was an excellent bassist who is almost as well-known for his methods as for his playing. Watt has collaborated with a wide spectrum of artists, from Sonic Youth to Kelly Clarkson. Musically, his basslines are a diverse blend of elements from jazz, funk and rock. The majority of Watt's solo albums are conceptual affairs with a unifying theme, and the bassist leads by example without ever overpowering the other players.
He also performs with well-known bands, handling the bass on Porno for Pyros' Good God's Urge, the Stooges' The Weirdness and the Cutthroat Brothers' The King Is Dead. Favorite collaborators include Dos, Spielgusher and Unknown Instructors. Watt is always led by his Econo philosophy, using the constraints created by working on a tight budget as a road towards simplicity and creative self-reliance. Watt follows his inspiration wherever it leads him..

The final booking price may be more than what is shown, but you should at least have a budget within that range for them to consider an appearance, performance or speaking engagement.
