About michaeldooley
Michael Dooley--33 year old father/husband/singer/songwriter/recording artist/student/pizzacook.
I enjoy to write music and perform live but my favorite thing to do with music is record it. I like to look at recording a song or musical composition as a way of painting a picture with sound. Thank you for visiting my page of sound. miked.

I have been playing guitar since I was 12 or so. I have been writing music about as long. It is my fuel and my release. I live in Yankton, SD.
