Love the album, the solos are some of the most impressive pieces I’ve heard for some time. So glad I discovered it!
It was a distinct pleasure to meet Michael on Maui and get a copy of “Hawaiian Paradise” from the artist himself! It is a beautiful collection of songs recorded in amazing fidelity that capture the beauty of Maui, the laid back bustle of Lahaina and everythng wonderful about Hawaii.
I also picked up a signed copy of the Hawaiian Paradise album while in Lahaina. Michael and his wife had a display booth set up at the Banyon Tree and the music being generated by Michael and his Chapman Stick really got my attention. The Hawaiian Paradise album has a wonderful mix of relaxing music that is perfect for unwinding after a busy day at work. I’ve also put the entire album on my iPhone. 🙂
I heard you play 3 times in 2007 starting with Maui County Fair venue; I am looking forward to more in Sept & Oct 08. Did you ever meet Courtney Branch? He is an amature musician, lives in the same complex you do. Great website! I look forward to adding your Hawaiian album to the two I already have. K

Thank you for the update on your music and plan to be back in Maui October 2008 for an Island Bike/camp ride. As I did San Diego to San Francisco in four leasure weeks. Then San Francisco to Las Vegas in six weeks on a Cannondale 24 speed bicycle. I wish to do all five Hawaiian Islands one each summer after I do Maui. My dad now in heaven was with the 36th Infantry Division in WWII and fought next to and with the famed 442nd of Hawaii so I feel like I have an extended family in Hawaii now that mom and dad are gone.
See ya under the Banyan Tree October 2008

Truly awesome, Michael. I was tickled to see someone I had just met featured on the cover and in a wonderful article. I hope I get to hear you play many more times. Welcome to Maui, Bruddah.
Hi. I bought a couple of your CDs when in Hawaii. The name of the Chapman Stick player who was here in Ft. Collins is Bob Culbertson. Just wanted you to know. I enjoy your CDs. Thanks.
