My name is Mike O’Brien and I am passionate about teaching and mentoring through music. My calling is to use my experience as a producer, worship leader, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist to come alongside musicians, helping them more fully worship God with their instrument and lives.

Hi Mike,
I don’t think we’ve ever met, but we have a mutual friend, Kim Gentes. He posted this video on his FB page and it really helped me. I am a very basic, small group only, worship leader who had never taken any guitar lessons. Loved your instruction on strumming. BTW…Kim (and Jordan) lead worship for my home group. Kim and I have worked together for about 28 years, or so…planting a church and doing life.
