Mick Wilson

lead vocals

As a vocalist and percussionist, Mick has performed with artists such as Lionel Ritchie, Kylie Minogue, Gary Barlow, Cher, Ellie Goulding, Paloma Faith, Chris Rea, Smokey Robinson, Jessie J, Robin Gibb, Lulu, and the KLF. Mick was also honored to be a part of the band for Jeff Lynne’s ELO concert in London’s Hyde Park.

Joining Graham Gouldman for an acoustic set in London some time ago, Mick soon became a regular in that incarnation of 10cc, taking on lead vocal duties and playing percussion, guitar, and keyboards. Graham and the band have performed extensively in Europe and toured Australia, Japan, New Zealand, and the U.S.

He is also a regular member of The SAS Band, which play all over the world, with guest performers such as Brian May, Roger Daltrey, Roger Taylor, Kiki Dee, and Tony Hadley.

Mick has his own recording and production facility where he has produced and composed music for various TV and live events for companies such as Sky, BBC, ITV, McDonalds, BT, X-Factor, Levi’s, Toyota, Mercedes, and Ford, most recently providing the music for this year’s Volvo Ocean Race.

His debut solo album, So the Story Goes, was co-produced and co-written with Graham Gouldman. His latest release in 2022, Chameleon, is a collection of twelve of Mick’s favorite cover songs that he has performed over the years at his solo acoustic shows. To quote Mick: “Some of them are just a joy to sing and others I wish I had written, but either way, they all have a special connection for me. I hope that everyone enjoys them.”

Mick continues to be much in-demand as a session vocalist in and around London and can be heard on various TV and film productions, including the recent Cilla miniseries and Sunshine On Leith motion picture.

Most recently, Mick was the “singing voice” in the Academy Award-winning movie Bohemian Rhapsody for the actor who portrayed Queen’s drummer.

We are absolutely delighted he is singing and playing with us in GO NOW!—The Music of The Moody Blues.
