Mike Cruiciger

Besides providing guitar accompaniment and lyrics for sing-along songs requested by audience members, Cruciger personalizes his programs with humorous and thought-provoking commentary on social values, changing times and sharing the world. The addition of a few unusual banjo tunes to spice up the program always results in a unique program with that special Mike Cruciger touch.
