Florida-born and burnt and now calling the rolling hills of Asheville home, Mickey Strivelli brings raw honesty and genuine spirit to every note he plays. As the songwriter and frontman for bands “Wanderfoot,” “Human Progress,” and “Local Wildlife,” Mickey has paid his dues on stages both humble and grand—from backroom bars to sun-soaked festival grounds—earning awards for crafting songs that speak plain truths.

Mickey’s music grows from the rich soil of everyday life. His songs tell the stories we all live: celebrations of love found, the ache of dreams deferred, and the quiet courage of standing tall for what’s right. When Mickey sings about freedom and human rights, it’s not with lofty rhetoric but with the clear-eyed conviction of someone who’s walked alongside his neighbors through good times and hard.

With roots firmly planted in indie-folk tradition, Mickey’s sound branches naturally into the soulful territories of reggae, the honest grit of blues, and the inclusive embrace of alt-pop. His music feels like gathering around a community fire—sometimes it warms you with hope, sometimes it illuminates the shadows we all carry, but it always reminds us we’re not alone on this journey.

Mickey Strivelli doesn’t just perform for people—he sings with them and of them, crafting melodies that belong to everyone who’s ever laughed hard, loved deep, or stood their ground when it mattered most.
