For the last eleven years, Chris Michael's life has been about following his musical dream.
Chris was born in Queens, New York on July 7. His father's love of the Righteous Brothers and Journey kept their small apartment constantly filled with music. In 1994, Chris' life took a tragic turn when his mother Linda was killed in a subway accident.
"I don't like to talk about that time in my life - it was rough on both me and my Dad - but that was when my music became the most important part of my life", says Chris. So, at an early age, he would find that music eased his pain and he became determined to help others thru his own music.
"Growing up in New York City, I knew I was in the number one place to hit it big," says Chris, whose dreams were realized at an early age, as one of the original members of the boy band UNREEL. "It was a cool group and things were great until my Dad had to move to Tampa. Being without my Mom, I made the decision to move with him.
Starting over in Tampa, Chris dedicated himself to helping others by singing in benefit concerts. I knew that as long as I helped others, my dream would stay alive. And indeed it did. Chris performed at many benefits for the St. Joseph's Children's Hospital, Radio Disney and Sea Worlds's 2005 Grad-night.
At the age of 18, Chris started recording. Recorded in New York and Orlando with cutting-edge producers, the disc showcases Chris' passion for his music, his incredible vocals and dynamic lyrics. "Chris Michael is the real thing, says Wright Stuff publicity exec. Not only one of the most amazing voices I've heard in over 10 years, but with a down-to-earth demeanor and real humility that you rarely find in someone so gifted."

Gary Carolla Backstreet Boys, NSYNC, Britney Spears, Aaron Carter, The Rag Dolls
