Live Music at Salute Mexican Lounge featuring Spike & April
Door County, WI-based duo Spike and April play only songs they enjoy, gleaning material from jazz, swing and rock they cover familiar tunes and obscurities. Set lists include their own inspired, finely-crafted originals. Music veterans Mike "Spike" Judy on guitar/voice and April Pate on drums/voice, create a laid-back mood filled with great songs. Mike has been in many inspired bands including “Spike and the Eargoggles” an improvisational group consisting of Milwaukees' finest musicians. His Minneapolis bands “Up Simba” and “Laundromat Vacation” (Youtube) were assertively instrumental projects featuring Mike on electric guitar/bass that played some of his original compositions. He also was a founding member of the WAMI award winning Milwaukee band “Semi Twang”. April is a singer and drummer. Vocally inspired by Astrud Gilberto, Blossom Dearie, Johnny Mathis and Nat Cole, she has a smooth and genuine vocal style.
