  • Mikey or Bust!
    author: Lacey Kim

    Mikey is an amazing artist above and beyond tha fact that I am so lucky as to have him as my Godfather. I love you and Kathy sooooo much. Love, Lacey kim

  • Great CD!!!
    author: Justin MacEachern

    I saw Michael perform at my hotel when I was on South Padre Island, loved his music and bought his first two CD's, loved them so I bought this third CD. It is what you would expect, again another great compilation of original songs. I am up here in NH and MA, in the snow, trying to get everybody on board and discover how great Micheal Laferty's music really is. Who knows if he remembers us, but we are the boys from Massachusetts as he called us. Keep up the good work Michael!

  • Great live CD! Love the Texas Music sound.
    author: Jason

    This CD was done live and I feel like I am right there in the audience. It is genuine Texas Music and the use of pedal steel guitar and steel drums is great. The artist stops and tells stories in some of his songs and that really adds to the feel of the CD, and there is a great hidden track at the end. I really loved this CD.
