Mike Maimone and Mutts

With his fifteenth album and debut memoir, piano-playing singer-songwriter Mike Maimone chronicles the profound love story he shared with his late husband, legendary publicist Howard Bragman—whose groundbreaking career empowered countless people to live openly and authentically.

Written with candor and warmth, Guess What? I Love You weaves humor, heartbreak, spirituality, and healing. New York Times bestselling author Thomas Maier calls it “a beautifully written, deeply moving memoir that will stir the soul of anyone who reads it.”

Music is central to Maimone’s storytelling, and the album serves as a true companion piece. DNA Magazine says the record “documents not just a relationship, but also the resilience found in facing sorrow and choosing to celebrate love.”

On his release tour, Maimone invites audiences—especially those navigating grief—to remain open to connection, embrace vulnerability, and experience the full spectrum of human emotion through songs and stories from his transformative “Year of Yes.”

Since beginning his career in 2005, Maimone has written and published over two hundred songs heard on TV, in films, and on the radio. LA Weekly calls Maimone “a multifaceted and innovative artist… equal parts moody piano man, emotional bartender, and armchair psychologist.” He has averaged around 100 tour dates per year as a solo artist, fronting his trio Mutts, and as a session keyboardist. He has appeared at festivals such as Lollapalooza and Riot Fest, headlined iconic venues including the Metro, Bowery Ballroom, and the Troubadour, performed on keys with Stevie Wonder, and toured alongside OK Go, Plain White T’s, and Blues Traveler.
