Mumblefinger

Rock | Jazz | Soul

About: ​Singer/songwriter, Story Teller, Humorist MUMBLEFINGER (aka Brian Birkes), is the vocal & guitar guy. He began playing guitar and writing songs at the age of 12. As an adult, he kicked around New York, San Diego, San Francisco, & Nashville perfecting his unique tone and talent.

Mumblefinger has released many CDs independently & his songs have been showcased on the nationally syndicated House of Blues Radio, NPR & other radio stations in the U.S., Germany, & Brazil. He has also had his song/video, Exactly Like You, played on CMT (Country Music Television).

Legendary Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section member and record producer, Barry Beckett (who also produced or played with Aretha Franklin, Bob Dylan, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Elton John, Bob Seger) and Mumblefinger collaborated on a stellar CD – The Beckett Sessions.

Mumble has shared the bill with such greats as John Lee Hooker, Leon Russell, Average White Band, and Norton Buffalo (Doobie Brothers, Steve Miller Band).

Mumblefinger’s original songs vary from Funk to Jazz to Blues/Soul to Country to Reggae all with a Rock-n-Roll Flavor. Style is similar to, but not a clone of, Leon Russell, Joe Cocker, Dr. John, Robin Trower, The Subdudes, and JJ Cale.
