Mike Rayburn's Presentations
Every Mike Rayburn presentation is based on clean, universally appealing comedy
and masterful guitar. From there you have two choices:
#1 “What If and Why Not?” (entertainment and message)
We hear it all the time, “We need to think outside the box,” right?
So... how exactly does one do that?
In his hilarious, musically amazing, motivational keynote, “What
If... and Why Not?” Mike Rayburn does what no other presenter can
do. Not only is Mike a world-class guitarist and stand-up comedian, he
is an authority on personal development and human potential. In this
energetic presentation Mike uses his guitar and comedy to teach three
simple, powerful tools attendees can use immediately and forever to access
their unrealized potential, to look at old things in a new way, and to
leap beyond their perceived limitations. These are the tools which took
Mike from playing for seven people in a bar in Virginia to standing ovations
at Carnegie Hall. They work. For anyone And everyone. Always.

#2 “Classically Trained, Comically Derailed… “
Mike can also focus his program completely on entertainment. “Classically
Trained, Comically Derailed” is Mike Rayburn’s critically
acclaimed odyssey of masterful guitar; clever, universally appealing
comedy; and musical combinations God never intended.
“A comic genius... enough wit and talent to jumpstart a pacemaker!” raves
the Aspen Daily News.
When your attendees have had an intense day of break-out sessions and
need to relax and unwind, or when they need an energy lift in the beginning
or middle of the day, Mike Rayburn is the answer.
“If Victor Borge played guitar (and drank too much coffee) he’d
sound like Mike,” says Carnegie Hall promoter, Mark Johnson.
“Classically Trained, Comically Derailed” is perfect for
after-dinner presentations, awards shows, and anywhere your event needs
to be energized and totally entertained!
