Michael Hicks -- piano & Hammond B-3 organ
Watching the energetic, spontaneous, and passionate musicianship of Michael Hicks on stage, one would find it hard to believe that this fiery keyboardist is reserved, introverted, and even shy off stage. A native of Warner Robins, Georgia and a current resident of Murfreesboro, Tennessee, Michael brings a musical background rich in the culture of gospel music and the rhythmic stylings of soul and funk. Quietly becoming a force in Nashville's urban music scene, he produces and writes for various artists and he is the frontman and songwriter for Nashville's newest force of funk, Funktional Punctuation (aka The Funk Puncs).
