Of South African descent this young star was born only a year after his parents immigrated to Australia. At an early age it became apparent to his parents that Mike had a natural ability to sing, dance and captivate just about any audience with his raw talent. At the age of eight Mike joined a band with his sisters and began rapping as “Micky C” as at various nightclubs around Sydney.
During his school years “Micky C” began writing songs after realising he was able to connect lyrics with melodies. He would often be found in his bedroom late at night writing and singing to himself. After finishing school, “Micky C” became Mike Champion and with support of his oldest sister, Melanie, and parents, headed to the studio to record his first demo of three songs he had written at the age of 15.
