My name is Michael Alan Cleary, and I am absolutely in love with music and everything it has the power to accomplish. It is a language I have used to connect with the world ever since I began playing guitar in Kentucky, and it remains the same today as I continue to explore my craft in Los Angeles.

The songs I choose to cover are those that have immensely informed my own songwriting. As a result, I treat them with the utmost love, respect, and care. I strive to mold classics from artists like Steely Dan, Elton John, Stevie Wonder, Duke Ellington, and Irving Berlin into thoughtful experiences that highlight the bridge from their beauty to my own creations. You will hear something fresh and unique, but with the sophistication, warmth, joy, and passion of all the classics.
