“Mike Lurz is a talented, yet modestly in demand lighting designer…In the business since 1982, Lurz’s work has been profiled in the pages of Total Productions US numerous times, most notably for his design for Sissel’s latest tour and various Coors corporate events. But don’t pigeon-hole him!”
-Bruce Jordahl, Publisher and Editor of Total Productions US Magazine
“Mike is the light designer that makes my music look good! The first time we worked together was on my first tour in the US 2002.”
-Sissel Kyrkjebo on sisselmusic.com
“Mike Lurz is a lighting genius”
-Bruce Gates and Henry Gandy, Warehouse Productions
“Sissel rocking a sold out Christmas tour throughout Sweden and with it, she has technology and transport from the Music & Lights. Veteran Asle Nielsen taps sound and chose a Nexø Geo-T system and DigiCo D5 table for the task. Kjell-Morten Brun makes the monitors even with a D5: a and this time no IEM without Nexø PS-15 straight through. The American lighting designer Mike Lurz, relied on a Grand MA full size and was right on target with the Martin LC LED wall together with the media server Maxxedia , which he was working with for the first time. The production has received enormously positive critique of both audio and lighting / use of the media. -Fun, we think!”
