About Me

Kiley Michael, a New Orleans native, has performed all over the world. Since leaving New York after Katrina he has landed back home. He is performing original songs with a fabulous array of musicians at hot spots like Rock'n'Bowl and the House of Blues.In 2006, Kiley had a local hit on the Bayou 95.7 FM with over 1000 spins of his version of "When the Levee Breaks". In 2007, a summer tour in France debuting original compositions and performing with local musicians. In 2008, Kiley Michael helped sell-out the Parish at the House of Blues and Rock'n'Bowl. He put together a killer band and is excited to get them in the studio with brand new material. "Songwriting is something that just flows out of you", says Kiley. He is definitely flowing with songs like "Boy" and "Star". Look out for his new EP coming in Spring '09.
