About Me

Michael S. Judge’s interests include writing in the third person and being Stephen Dedalus.

Praise for the self-titled debut album from Jerusalem:

"Give credit to Michael S. Judge where it’s due. His one-man band’s progressive rock brims with ambition and creative arrangements . . . [his] guitar riffs and analog synthesizer leads are assured and adventurous."
--The Big Takeover

"For a single 20-year old, this is unbelievable . . . an incredible achievement that shows good old rock musicianship and songwriting."
--Independent Clauses

"Skip[s] from warm, retro symphonic prog via hard rock swagger to delicate jazz chording - and you don’t even know it’s happening . . . I heartily recommend Jerusalem for anyone interested in discovering a new, unique talent."
--Jacob Holm-Lupo, White Willow
