Michael's professional music career began as a songwriter and guitarist in Nashville, TN. After years of moderate success, he left to pursue other interests. A personal and artistic re-birth eventually led him back to music.

His debut solo CD, Sacred Nation, received the 2003 Native American Music Award for Best Independent Recording. His follow-up, They Come Dancing, was nominated in 2004. The Journey, Michael's third CD, received a 2006 Indian Summer Music Award, and was nominated for a 2006 Just Plain Folks Award and two 2007 Native American Music Awards.

The aptly named masterpiece, Mystery, is Michael's latest work and it is as diverse thematically as it is musically. Covering topics from the environment and politics to the ecstasy and agony of life and relationships, Mystery will rock you with its power and move you to tears with its tenderness and poignancy.
