Michael Wells
Artist description
Michael writes thoughtful, reflective lyrics and adds smooth melodies and flowing harmony. This music is always easy on the ears, and is best when listened to with headphones. The lyrics are probing, personal and psychological, but written so that we can use the symbolism and find the message within. He writes about relationships, love, life, death the future and the past.
