Details:
Alan Michaels isn't your typical songwriter. He canât sing, play an instrument or read music. âI donât know a B-flat from a G-Clef,â he admits. But what he does have is a head full of lyrics, a soul full of emotions, and catchy melodies that he uses to tie it all together.

What he lacks in musical talent, Alan more than makes up for in his tenacity and commitment to succeed. He surrounds himself with gifted musicians who have the uncanny knack of being able to translate his natural passion into music that people can relate to. The singers, instrumentalists and producers who breathe life into Alanâs songs are all professional, accomplished artists who have played with some of the best known names in the music world.

On his first CD, âVenture,â Alan Michaels utilizes both male and female lead vocalists. He explains, âAlthough my songs were originally written from a male perspective, most tended to evolve once I was in the studio. I discovered that if I twisted the words a bit and used a female singer on certain songs, it entered a totally different dimension. Simply changing from a male to a female vocalist produced emotions that moved the song in ways I hadnât predicted when I wrote it.â

It's a challenge to pigeonhole exactly what genre his songs fall into. According to Alan: "Call it Country, call it Pop, call it the Polka if you want to. But as long as it touches an emotional chord inside you - if you like what you hear and you can relate to it on a personal level, it doesn't really need to be categorized. Just call it music."

Whether an upbeat, foot-tapping tune, a tender love song, or a heartbreaking ballad of someone lost too soon, Alan Michaels strives to pull the listener into his world, to feel what he feels. That, above money or fame, is his idea of a successful âVenture.â
