World renowned saxophonist Mike Phillips is known as one of the most electrifying instrumentalists today. Mike is the first musician signed by Michael Jordan to the Nike Jordan Brand, home of the Air Jordan, and is the only musician in the world to have recorded and toured with the legendary “Big Three” of American soul and pop music: Michael Jackson, Prince, and Stevie Wonder, not only as a member of the band, but as a featured soloist.
In 2023, Mike Phillips launched Keep It Moving Music (KIMM), under the SRG Jazz label imprint. He was also recently named Sr. VP of SRG Jazz at the SRG-ILS Group (distributed by UMG). He is a recipient of an Honorary Doctor of Music Business and Entrepreneurship degree, a recipient of The President’s Lifetime Achievement Award and The Georgia Citizen Award, which is the highest state-level honor given to a citizen. And notably is an amazing golfer; so, if he’s not on a stage near you, look for him on the golf course.
Mike toured for nearly two years as part of the band for ‘Michael Jackson The IMMORTAL Tour’ by Cirque du Soleil. And music superstar Prince knew what audiences around the world know… when Mike Phillips puts his saxophone to his lips, magic is about to happen.
Prince once quoted “I was offstage, listening to Michael Phillips take his solo. I was thinking ‘Wow, listen to those people responding, and all he’s doing is playing a saxophone.’ They can feel that what he’s doing is real. So many shows now…they are so dead. But here’s one man breathing into an instrument, and the whole room feels alive. It made me want to rise up to that level when I came back onstage.” Prince, Rolling Stone.
No stranger to the sports world, Mike Phillips is the first musician signed by esteemed basketball player Michael Jordan to his Nike Jordan Brand, home of the Air Jordan, opening the door for Phillips to build a rapport with some of the top professional athletes today. Mike performs over a dozen national anthems every year for a host of sporting organizations such as: Professional Golfers of America (PGA), National Basketball Association (NBA), National League (NL), Major League Baseball (MLB), National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing (NASCAR), and the National Football League (NFL) just to mention a few. Check out his Instagram @Mike_Phillips for some of these exciting moments.
Mike's solo albums “You Have Reached Mike Phillips”, “Uncommon Denominator”, “M.P.3”, “Pulling Off The Covers”, and his latest, “Mike Phillips”, all debuted in the Top #5 on the Billboard Contemporary Jazz Albums Chart. As 2024 continues to make its ways into our lives, be prepared as Mike Phillips will continue to bless our ears and souls with amazing new music from himself and from artists signed to his KIMM label imprint.
Mike Phillips is here to stay and as he would say, “the best is yet to come.”
