Born and raised in SE Michigan, the art of playing the guitar was a beloved part of life by the age of sixteen.  A love of the blues expanded to other genres which led to 25 years of collaborative work with multiple cover bands in SE Michigan, and NW Ohio.

Michael began writing original songs in order to expand his skills, explore music, and share expressions of life. 

As a moniker, Funeral Pint expresses never forgetting your roots as you reach towards your future. 

Raise a glass and toast to life's journey, in totality!
