Mikky Ekko

Mikky Ekko is one hit single away from being a star. His voice is very well suited for radio, he just needs that one song to push him off the precipice to stardom.


You may have heard his name before. He is featured in Rihanna's track from this year called Stay. That definitely puts Mikky on fame highway; headed west. However, before he blows up, I wanted to shed some light on his talent and get you introduced to him before you hear him all over the radio. The song that first brought him to my attention was actually a remix of his song Pull Me Down by one of my favorite new producers, Ryan Hemsworth.



I think his voice is amazing. He's kind of like a white Bruno Mars with less to lose, which makes his music more raw and passionate! Mikky's songs are beautiful and emotional just like Bruno Mars, he just hasn't gotten commercial yet so the music is still real and pure. Check out what I mean in this more recent release.



He also has a song released on the latest Hunger Games movie soundtrack that is excellent, called Place For Us. Although that song is great, I really wanted to end this post on a softer note. On the same EP he released Pull Me Down on, he released Feels Like The End. This song is absolutely beautiful. It shows his range as an artist, which I am sure you will see more of whenever he puts out a debut LP. Take a listen



Make sure you follow Mikky on Facebook and check out more of his tracks on Spotify and SoundCloud! You won't be disappointed.

Enjoy! <3
