Mike Snider (born May 30, 1961) is an American banjo player and humorist. He specialized in "old-time" mountain music which is a stylistic that can be traced back to the core beginnings of country music. He learned to play the banjo at the age of 16. Although he is well known for comedic routine, he is also a banjo player. Much of his comedy is based on stories about his wife, Sabrina, referred to as Sweetie.
