"Can't say enough about Mike and his music.
It's nice to see an independent artist actually garner worthy attention
from our audience, and his was a classic "play a great song and the listeners
will react to it" scenario. We started playing "Pledge" many months ago, mostly at night in a "test" category, and my Nights Air Personality kept telling me the song was landing in her "Hot 8 @8" countdown. So I expanded the airplay, and because the song is such a moving ballad, our target demo just ate it up. What's funny is, even though we've played and played and played the song, it almost never fails that we'll play "Pledge" every once in awhile and STILL get the "who is that and what's that song called" query off the phone lines. In all, "Pledge" will find itself among our top ten played songs for 2006, right up there with the Black Eyed Peas, Hinder, Nickelback... that's just how good this song was for our audience. It was no mirage seeing "Pledge" atop our weekly spins charts for many weeks in the fall, either. The song is no joke. I also had the opportunity to hang out with Mike and his musicians when they graciously came to do a Children's Miracle Network benefit show during our radiothon, and the live performance was goose-bump inducing. This guy's a talent waiting for the label big-wigs to find him." - Ron Roberts Q93 FM Alexandria, LA |

"Mike Comforts 'pledge' is an underground classic. The minute the song was
played on KRCS the phone was blowing up w/ listeners wanting to know who
that was. When Comfort and his band came to Rapid City for a show I can
honesty say that I have never seen such a great reaction for an independant
artist. I believe more Cd's were sold that night then i have seen in a long
time..Mike Comfort has made his mark and is here to stay."

"The phones light up everytime we add a new
single from mike comfort. There are so many strong
songs on his CD free it is often hard for me to pick the
next one. We have added Falling Away, Beautiful,
Another Side, and Pledge. We are also proud to sponser all of his
sold out shows in Chico, Ca. Mike is a true talent and is going to
have a very bright future." - Marty Griffin P.D. KQPT 107 The Point Chico, Ca |

release to ever hold the #1 spot here at Tower Records for 2 months.
free has outsold even most of our major label releases. mike
comfort's songs are inspiring, true and from the soul. It's
not surprising we are constantly sold out of his cd." -

"When I started spinning mike comfort's
songs we received so many calls that I was inspired to contact our consultant for
Regent (communications) and get approval to add Mike into rotation. This is the first
time we have ever added an unsigned artist to our playlist. Extremely strong
songwriting.." - Don Burton P.D. Mix 99.3 Redding, Ca |

like delving into the soul of a man wise beyond his years. Each song

standard love songs." "insightful lyrics..." "He [comfort] pours out his heart and soul in this intense album perfect for anyone who wishes they could stop the constant motion of their life and take time to hibernate for a night or two." - Independent Collegian Toledo University Toledo, OH |
