His parents were Michael’s number one promoters and hoped that I would mention him on-air. Once I heard his music and learned more about this remarkable young man, I just had to invite him to join us in studio. He wowed the audience and since then has been composing and performing both in the U.S. and Europe. His music is heartfelt, a style reminiscent of Paul McCartney. And his story is worth hearing!
