notes

"Micheal, clearly, is a seasoned entertainer, he perfoms and writes some of the most true to life and honest lyrics I have ever heard. This is a CD that I listen to over and over again, and the emotions just well-up inside me again and again." - N. Klampe, President, Klampe Promotions and Productions

Micheal has been performing professionally for 25 years. During that time he has honed and crafted his trade to create a vocal quality that is extraordinary.

Known for quite a while as a songwriter, Micheal finally is gaining the national reputation he deserves as a solo performer in his own right. Says Micheal, "I'm not sure whether I actually started writing mainstream music, or mainstream music just came around to my way of thinking. Somewhere along the line people started to think of me as a Texas Songwriter, pretty funny for a guy from the Pacific Northwest, but hey... their throwing me into the pot with Lyle, Robert Earl, I've even been compared with Jimmy Buffett, fine with me. A pretty good group of guys to be thrown together with. Vagabond Moon is a collection of songs written about real life experiences and situations that I have lived. It is a honest CD, not over-produced, and not alot of fancy studio tricks. Just me, a guitar, and my stories."

  • Collector's Dream
    author: Duane Duckworth

    Great discovery work of an artist that is going to be heard from much in the future. This is going to be a collector's dream and I'd recommend getting two copies, one to save within the wrapper intact and the other to listen to continually. The only reason I wouldn't give this five stars is that it could be done over with complete instrumentation and back-up vocals would put this over the charts where it belongs.

  • Unbelievable vocals and strories. Don't miss this one!!
    author: Ann

    We saw J. Michael perform live at South Padre Island Texas, and he was wonderful, so we bought his CD's. He captures the island atmosphere and the Texas songwriter attitude. We loved Vagabond Moon and Gulf Stream Breezes. Anyone would love them.
