Stay tuned for a new 5-song EP, coming in March 2009. We just finished the recording, and things are sounding really good, nice and full. After playing these songs over and over again in a busking, solo-style format, it’s really fascinating to hear them grow into these big, full compositions. The goal is to retain the feel of the original song, guitar and single voice—but to add more depth and dynamics.

Please mark your calendars now. I’m playing another solo show: L.E.S. Productions Presents *daisy* LIVE at 169 Bar, Sat 8/25 at 9:30pm This one will be a longer set, and I need to have at least 15 people there. IMPORTANT: Please tell them at the door that you are there to see *daisy* (with the stars) or Michael. Start rehearsing now so that it’s flawless by showtime. You have 4 weeks. If you’ve never been to this bar, you should check it out. It’s a cool space with a relaxed vibe. Shoot some pool, check out some live music. You’ll be happy. 169 Bar is located at 169 East Broadway. Cross Street is Rutgers Street (Essex turns into Rutgers just south of Canal). Easy for you Brooklynistas – take the F train to the East Broadway exit. Admission is $10. Can’t wait to see you there!

I'm sharing a set early with two wonderful new songwriters, Sherri Tennant and Theodora Zarbis. Together we are listed as The "New & Used" Songwriter Collective 9pm: Casey Holford 10pm: The Babyskins 11pm: Art Sorority For Girls For a full listing of shows at the Sidewalk: *** Stay tuned for more shows in July and August. I plan to play a Tuesday night or two at the 11th St. Bar, which is located at 510 E.11th St. (between Avenue A & B) in the East Village.
