"It shouldn't be surprising that the Washington, DC area, home to Felix Grant and Charlie Byrd, the two men who helped introduce Brazilian music to a wide audience in this country, should produce a group like Bossalingo. What is surprising is that players so young should have such a strong feeling for this music. They sound like they've been playing it all their lives. And what's even more surprising are the arrangements and improvising...This record is truly a pleasant surprise!"
- Tom Cole, WPFW & NPR
"Michael’s improvisations are intelligent explorations of new melodies spun out over often familiar chord changes."
- Alan Greenblatt, The Washington Post
"Bossalingo is one of the best local releases in recent years."
Welcome to my world of music. Enjoy yourself and send me a note. I look forward to seeing you all at a show, if not soon then someday, perhaps in the fourth dimension. Until then, may our spirits play with delight in the space of music, sound, words, and dance.
May you feel your heart speak your truth every day of your life.
