Micky learned to play guitar in an autodidactic way at the tender age of eight. Back then he already had a passion for the music of the founders of Rock'n'Roll, for example Chuck Berry, Eddie Cochran or Elvis Presley (especially for the style of his first guitarist Scotty Moore).
He was also influenced by Hard Rock and Metal as well as by the numerous facets of Blues. As time went by he improved and cultivated his technique and furthermore learned to play other instruments like drums, bass, banjo and everything he could get hold of.
In 1989 fifteen year old Micky entered the local music scene as the drummer of the 50s style Rockabilly band, called the „Porncats“.
From 1992 to 1995 he played drums in his brother's band „Teddy Conetti“. Then he changed over to lead guitar, culminating in furious guitar battles on stage with his brother. Besides he made experiences in various cover bands and became the singer and guitarist of the Blues Rock trio „Midnight Creep“.
Following his rising passion for the classic country music of Hank Williams, Jimmie Rodgers and Johnny Cash, he left Teddy Conetti to found his own country band in 2007.
Since then he has been writing and producing his own country songs, as well as arranging cover versions of his favorite tunes in his cozy recording studio deep in the heart of Westfalia, Germany. He plays all instruments by himself.
