Michael now performs a solo show although he does occasionally have guest duos. Recent guest performances have come from Miss Penny of Glamourous Showbar and Pete Trueman, star of the west end stage. Dance spots have featured Daniel Steadman and Lucas Owen.
Influences
Michael's repertoire takes its lead from the sound of Broadway and the West End. Regular numbers also include songs from musical film. That said, he enjoys studio recording and has been known to perform live pop- and pop-ballads. A sample of Michael's recording work plays on this MySpace.
Should you have requests for a particular set for a live show, please contact Ross Cooper at NVS entertainment to arrange booking.

Michael's voice is relatively unique and often changes dependent upon the set-list he's performing - he is an extremely versatile artist who can adapt his style to the given venue and purpose.
Michael McCulley (Recording Artist) also known as Michael Daniels (cabaret live performance) has been in the entertainment industry since he was wet around the ears.
It all started in his early teens when he worked regularly with major theatre companies, including the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) and National Youth Theatre (NYT). At 14, Michael transferred to North Leamington Performing Arts College. There followed some guest spots on national television, including appearances in CBBC's 'The Biz' and CITV's "Children's Ward". He also began formal drama training, achieving gold medals in LAMDA examinations.
Michael was also one of the voices on the original Children in Need vocal arrangement for "If you want to help, help children in need", performing live to the nation on the CIN programme and entering the UK charts at 13 years of age.
Since then, Michael has provided session vocals for many high profile acts, including David Sneddon, Six, Liberty X and many others.
Michael studied English at the University of Stirling, where he also completed teacher training in English and Drama; subsequently, he moved to Glasgow where he spent a year at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama studying Musical Theatre part time. During this time he also taught at Jordnahill School in Glasgow.
These days, Michael works full time as Consultant for English and Drama in Shakespeare's historic Warwickshire but he still enjoys performing during vacations and evening performances; he can often be seen on the Birminingham circuit.
Please support Michael in his endeavours and he hopes to see you at a show soon!

Scooch, for whom I sang the session vocals on their album, 'Four Sure' live and acoustic in Helsinki:
I'm good! Apologies for not being out in, well.......... AGES!! I ain't seen anybody in about urm six months now... I really must come out and boogie on down in the land of glitter & sparkle again. I'm sure I'm missed. Well, I hope.
Lol, Ian's done that same song "I didn't want you anyway"....I find that funny. Anyway, I'm here to give your profile some much needed Matty Love, also by me being here, it will give you a few more popularity points xxxx mwazzles for you though. You have a pretty voice! xxx
Haha. Life has been so much more hectic than I had expected! I guess I can't complain though, I hate it when there's nothing to do! :)
Oh and you visit Scotland without popping around here? Well, I never!! For this I'll just have to bombard you with NED-speak when I see you next! Yes, yes, die slowly inside! :p
Got anything set out in the next few weeks Mr. Singer? :)
I believe the history of the etap goes back to the time of the romans, where it was used to both house and torture the people of conquered nations with concrete bedding and sub-par breakfasts. And long has the tradition continued.
Haha oh the urge to blog :P I got home fine thanks! I hope you staggered the 100 yards to your home ok :D
All it takes is 5 shots of JD to stop me from being an item of furniture.
And guess what! I have mild whiplash!
Hahahaha your a legend. To be repeated again I hope, it was much fun!
After copious ammounts I reseach I discovered that the named the whale Willy... but Willy Minnelli sounds a bit too much like a question if you say it out loud, don't you think?
And of course after you yelled "Oh god, I need to blog!" in the Lounge, I was inspired :P
I don't know what revelations you speak of though, I fear selective amnesia is at play here. Or perhaps it's the after effects of the rohypnol. Ho-hum!
Right. People keep invading my profile saying what a good singer you are so I'm officially making a complaint in the name of Myspace humanitarian health. *ahem
Can you tell Paul that the video will be going on My Space please? He knows which one, and he has tried to deny all knowledge. (Think S Club Juniors, and him dancing) Thank you!
