About Me

A talented multi-instrumentalist and songwriter, Rocketown recording artist Michael Olson unveils this February an album of hope and healing. Born from living in the midst of lifes ambiguities, Where Fear and Faith Collide examines how difficult surprises can be made rich in Gods constancy. Olsons insightful lyrics melt seamlessly into modern, intelligent pop tracks in the vein of Steven Curtis Chapman, John Mayer and Matthew West.
