About Me

Dig into the dirt of life with Michael Churton. His music speaks a rare truth that seeps into the soul of humanity---but tackling topics at the very core of our being takes an awareness that doesn’t just land on your doorstep…Michael began his first relationship with a guitar at age 16---he moved on to lyrics two years later. As the musician and artist within him grew, so did his passion to learn and evolve. He searched for a universal connection to share with his audience---climbing Mt. Mulu in Borneo, jamming with local musicians in Havana, and eventually landing in New York City. Here he’s unleashed his creativity in countless venues like The Knitting Factory, Cutting Room, The Bitter End, C-Note, and at the Songwriter Hall of Fame Artist Showcase.Ever since Michael Churton hit the music scene, he’s provided a fresh perspective and a spark that ignites every song he performs. He’s got the honesty of Bob Dylan, the soulfulness of Jack Johnson, and the charisma of Dave Matthews---and Michael’s bringing storytelling via song to a whole new high. What he shares with his audience is a unique sound and a genuinely heartfelt message. Michael’s music carries his listeners to a place of empathy, comfort, and unity---reminding us all that we’re not alone.

Another Ticket from Mass Transit in LA

Got another tix in LA while commuting to Redondo beach. I don't know what the problem is. In LA, the metro doesn't check your tix at a turnstile like in NYC. However, if you get caught without a tix, ...

May Grey

The may grey has arrived here in LA. The day starts off overcast and then at some point the sun burns  it away. However, sometimes, like today, it just stays cloudy. You know they don't really ad...
