My repertoire consists of songs spanning from the 60's to Today, from just about every genre you could imagine. I can arrange songs to keep the show very mellow, or I can get folks dancing by transforming into a one-man-band with help of a looping pedal, harmonica, and foot percussion. I also have a full band, and a fantastic duo partner (fiddle/lead guitar) if you're looking for a bigger sound!

Michael was amazing. We had a large HS graduation party and he was able to play music that everyone liked. The kids loved his music as well as the parents and the crowd. There was dancing and lots of fun at the event and Michael created that environment with his music.
Response from Michael Rawls:
Thanks for the great review! I had a blast playing for you all and hanging out afterwards. Let's do it again!

Expect an energetic show (unless you're looking for a mellow performance) that will have folks up and having a good time!
Hello everybody, my name is Michael and I have been playing both the guitar and piano for over 20 years. I am a full-time music instructor and performer. I frequently perform solo, or duo shows throughout the week at coffee shops, bars, and breweries, as well as an occasional club or local theatre with my full band.
My main musical interests include folk, americana, classic rock and country. I have spent time learning several other types of music as well to perform and teach. I am always happy to learn a few special requests for private events!
I have the ability to provide full sound for a large gathering but would require lights (if necessary) and sound for much larger scale gatherings/events (festivals for instance).

If you have got a PA system to save me the time of transporting my own that’s great, but I’ve got all my own equipment which will vary depending on the size of the venue.
