Virtuosic vocalist/composer and international performer, Michael Mayo establishes himself as one of the most acclaimed and versatile voices in music today, with his lead single “The Way,” from his upcoming label debut on Artistry Music. The gifted child of two “first-call” L.A. session musicians, he was literally born into the business and spent his childhood listening to and learning, up close, from some of the greatest musical artists of the 20th century, all of them friends of the family. Michael's mom is a singer, his dad is a saxophonist/multi-instrumentalist. Michael grew up in the studio, watching his parents go on tour, and sing with people like Whitney Houston, Luther Vandross, Earth Wind & Fire, Stevie Wonder, Diana Ross, Michael Jackson…all the greats.” He moves with ease between interpreting classics with a small group or big band, to creating experimental and improvisational solo compositions that can have as many as 250 looped and layered vocal lead and choral harmony parts. Michael is similarly skilled at merging aspects of different musical genres (Jazz and R&B). “Today, whether I’m singing my own music or other people’s, I know that the only real common thread I care about is truth and authenticity.”
