A strong steady thumb on an old Gibson guitar is the driving force behind Danielle Miraglia's delta blues influenced guitar style. Add a raw, powerful, whiskey tinged voice and one might be tempted to label her a blues artist. But while Miraglia's style pays homage to these blues traditions, her classic rock verve, catchy melodies and eclectic array of song subjects that range from deeply personal to socially relevant give it an original twist that is all her own. A fresh sound along with a sharp wit and a captivating stage presence is gaining her fans all over the map. "It won't be long before the rest of the country takes notice." - Performing Songwriter.
"Michael Troy. Born and raised in the tough mill town of Fall River, MA, in many ways his life reflects that of the common folk. Having spent parts of his life as a carpenter, mill-worker, and fisherman, and most of his adult life as a husband and father, Michael has traveled many paths.
But one might be too quick to judge the man, his life, or his talents as anything common. His working-class background can camouflage that creative flame that burns within him. And the man is talented. His words immediately strike me with their gut felt honesty and truth. How long has it been since a singer/songwriter really touched your soul...no I mean really got inside! A wonderful storyteller with melody, a deep rich voice, excellent finger-pickin' skills and something of substance to say. What more can we ask for in a modern troubador? By all means give him a listen."
