Mike Gallo

Mike Gallo is a musician and visual artist whose work moves between the stage and the studio. As the bassist for Agnostic Front for more than two decades, he brings a driving low end and a high-energy presence to one of New York hardcore’s defining bands.

Through Gallo Originals, Mike channels that same creative spirit into graffiti-influenced artwork, mixed-media pieces, and original designs. Music, New York street culture, and making things by hand run through both sides of his work.

Gallo
Originals.

Mike’s visual work draws on the same culture as his music: graffiti, New York hardcore, punk records, and the objects and images he grew up around.

Through Gallo Originals, he makes original artwork, mixed-media pieces, and designs for apparel. His work includes painted and sculptural pieces inspired by records, cassette tapes, boomboxes, and street lettering.

For interviews, he can discuss the relationship between his music and art, his process, and building an independent creative business alongside a touring band.
