Post Description

Packed with unparalleled musicianship and teeming with the most engaging collection of songs, Jeff Michaels is guaranteed to knock out fans and critics alike. Born in St. Louis and raised in Houston before making his way to Austin, he lived on a steady diet of working ice houses and roadhouses all around the bayou city since the age of 15. From playing in the middle of farm country to the 5th ward, to playing rock gigs in the middle; he's got an eclectic, diverse history. Flash forward many years, with so much rich experience, and you've got a highly sought after, engaging, charming gentleman with impeccable skills; absolutely deadly with a strat and a live mic. 

By continually exceeding his own high artistic goals, Michaels' is bound to shatter all other expectations and reach new audiences – no mean feat when you continue his astonishing track record. "Red Hot Texas Blues" is Michaels’ first blues album in several years.. surprising, since he's lately spending as much time with Subterrania and his funk band as he is with Art Napoli and the metal speed-rock explosion known as the "Trash Rock Kings"; his roadhouse blues extravaganza live shows have been less and less frequent. Produced simple and fast, with material ranging from the gutsy, gritty blues call to arms of “Not This Time” to the elegant yet emotionally shattering ballad “Rolling On Down The Street” to the soul-nourishing, all-out funk attack of the opening track “Bus Driver” (meet the almighty power of the dirty funk riffs rolling out of the walls of marshalls.). 

Watch for Jeff out on tour with the Trash Rock Kings and, really, you never know when he'll be on the east side - drop by and get loose!
