Mike McCurlie — Hamilton, Ontario
The Story
Songs from the
Steel City
Mike McCurlie is a Hamilton, Ontario-based musician, storyteller, and voice artist with a career spanning decades of original songwriting, live performance, and community engagement. His music is rooted in the working-class spirit of the Steel City — honest, warm, and full of character.
Known for his wit, warmth, and ability to connect with an audience, Mike has become one of Hamilton's most beloved cultural voices. His original songs — from the rollicking "Don't Put The Hammer Down" to the reflective "You Can't Toboggan in The Hammer Anymore" — celebrate the city he calls home with humour and heart.
As the host of Hamilton Originals at The Westdale Theatre, Mike brought Hamilton's most celebrated musicians to intimate conversation, interviewing legends like Rik Emmett of Triumph, Ian Thomas, Tom Wilson, Boris Brott, and many more.
Whether performing his own songs, hosting a live interview series, lending his voice to a commercial or narration project, or writing a song that captures the spirit of a community — Mike brings the same thing every time: genuine connection, a great story, and a song that stays with you.
