A songwriter named “cook”….

Ever present and silent, cook, has been witness to that which makes our world alive.
He is simply put….aware.
His love of music and art has brought both beauty and rot to his life, but he has embraced it all. A shy, slightly introverted child, cook wanted nothing more than to laugh and please others. This has not changed in him. He has only discovered how to use music as a way of showing how the moment appears to him.

“We’ve forgotten how we fit into this world like the animals we ALL are. Instincts have been surrendered for ‘social standards’ and ‘public opinion’. People are scrutinized for being deemed selfish while others praised for having attitude. Some will swear how independent they are just to fit-in. Answer me this….do we wear the labels on our clothes, or do they wear us?”

“Listen to your gut. Act on a dream or a passion. Dare to let yourself be truly happy. Relish in the moments alone, by yourself. Count your friends and forget about your enemies. Read. Laugh….and laugh some more. “

All of cook’s music is written from personal experiences and profound moments in his life. Presented in a way that, hopefully, you can relate to your own.

So turn off the phone…
Open a beer…
Have a listen….
Reflect on your good times….
Smile….

…..cook

I have been playing stringed instruments since I was 5, studied classical cello for 12 years, picked up my first guitar when I was 10. For most of my teen years I was sure I was destined to be a metal guitar god like many of us do at that age, but as life, reality, and fate conspired, my priorities changed direction. I have been fortunate enough to have a successful career outside of music that has consumed most of my time and energy for the last 20 years, but in the last few years have dusted off the old chops to fuel my need for some additional form of creative expression.

Now much older and hopefully somewhat wiser, I write and record a variety of styles of instrumental guitar based music ranging from soft jazz to heavy rock, and am grateful for the advances in technology that allow a solo musician to write and share his own music from a small home studio with the rest of the world.

If you like my music, please download and share with your friends. I play for myself mainly and am happy to have anyone listen at all. Please visit my website for a full selection of all of my current demo recordings and links to other web pages and projects of mine.

Michael has been singing lead vocals, and playing lead guitar/keyboards in rock bands since the tender age of twelve, playing music ranging from 1950s rock and roll to full-bore thrash metal, and everything in-between. He picked up playing the guitar when he was fourteen and has been amazing audiences with his talents ever since. He began writing and recording in the mid-1990s, and has been a non-stop blur until the current day! His songs and style are inspired by artists like Nickelback, Creed, Good Charlotte, Green Day, Evanescence, Maroon 5, Nightwish, Van Halen, Asia, Boston, Def Leppard, Dream Theatre, Edenbridge, ELP, Judas Priest, King Crimson, Led Zeppelin, Rush, Yes, and ZZ Top.

Michael was fatally infected with FM radio that was playing constantly throughout his childhood, in the house and in the car, along with a scattering of Beach Boys 45s that he inherited from his Mother. He began playing guitar and writing songs around 14 years of age. Magazines, posters, CDs, cassettes and records were constantly scattered throughout his room, and a dream is born. Picture him sitting alone in a room playing and singing into a cassette recorder. Then, he was involved in a seemingly endless string of bands, where he cut his teeth and his unique style was germinated. Then, he moved to California in the mid-90s, following his heart and career. Over the next 15 years or so, he played and recorded with a chain of club rock bands, as well as many solo performances and recordings. Currently writing a book of poetry, based on existentialism and romantic meanderings, with a working title of “Better Late than Never.”

"Trinity" will be pre-released at the first stadium concert of the 2007 "Holy Avenger" tour on August 25th , 2007 at the "Summerfaire '07 World Peace Concert" at The Orange Show Stadium in San Bernardino, California, along with a half dozen Midwest dates in mid August! “Trinity’s” official release will be in November 2007. The full-length CD, "Holy Avenger" will see its official release on Valentine’s Day 2008, where it will be available at iTunes, eMusic, CD Baby and select retail stores around the world, along with every date and venue associated with the world tour to support this ground-breaking release!
