Michael D. Bryson

About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)Michael Bryson is a singer/songwriter who was born and raised in south central New Jersey and transplanted himself in New York City in the summer of 1999. A songwriter since the mid 90's, Bryson started performing live in 2004 and is currently working on his first studio record album (working title TAKING MY CHANCES) with the Incredibly Talented Mr. Chris Cubeta. So far, it's kinda awesome. It's full of songs about love, heartbreak, time, growing up, New Jersey, New York and of course Ashley Dupre.You can catch Bryson, an Amazingly Talented singer/songwriter (yes, I'm writing this myself) the first three Mondays of most months at The Red Lion on the corner of Bleecker and Thompson in NY, NY. There he takes part in The Monday Acoustic Session, sharing the stage with a host of Supremely Talented New York artists. Come check out the show cause there's always a slew of Unbelievably Talented acts there to rock your socks off. Figuratively speaking!!!IN UNRELATED NEWS: Bryson grew up in Willingboro, NJ and lived on the same street as professional wrestling legend, and W.W.E. Hall of Famer, Gorilla Monsoon. The experiences he had at Casa De Monsoon, and inside the walls of the famous Philadelphia Spectrum during it's monthly W.W.W.F/W.W.F. events had a permanent affect on Bryson, leaving him a life long pro wrestling fan/enthusiast/historian. Sad? Nah! But if you have a question about pro wrestling and it's history in North America and overseas, chances are Bryson knows the answer. Maybe that is sad.
