Mikel Jorge

R&B/Alternative artist Mikel Jorge is an 18-year-old guitarist, singer, producer, and songwriter coming out of New York City who specializes in catchy melodies and groovy chord progressions. During COVID-19, Mikel took advantage of his indoor free time and decided to pick up his brother's old acoustic guitar. After adapting quickly to the instrument, he decided to focus on playing the guitar and improving his production skills for his final senior project before he graduated high school. What resulted from that fateful decision was a culmination of expression, work, and talent in his debut album and passion project Curls, an album in which Mikel uses R&B guitar-laden tracks while also experimenting with electronic but soulful sounds. Inspirations include artists such as Steve Lacy, Al Green, Stevie Wonder, Rex Orange County, Mac Demarco, the Internet, and Her's.
