UK Songwriter, Musician.  "Mike Turnbull is a singer-songwriter from the Lake District whose main instruments are tenor guitar & octave mandola. Their sound coupled with the sources of his songs suggests Seth Lakeman and, in truth, that isn’t a bad comparison. He certainly has the same drive and energy."
Dai Jeffries - Folking.com

New 2019 album "...in so small a compass" available now...
