Bio
D. F. Michael is a gifted instrumentalist, a talented composer, and a charismatic performer. Through his singular combination of lush atmospheres, singable melodies, and thoughtful improvisations, D. F. Michael has earned the appreciation of a very broad audience that spans anywhere from smooth jazz enthusiasts to pop lovers.
D. F. Michael's latest album, Dances And Walks, a collection of compositions in different styles from the acclaimed multi-instrumentalist, is a worthy and mature successor to D. F. Michael's first album, Just For A Change.
Dances And Walks showcases D. F. Michael's inimitable melodic phrasings on all newly recorded dance, smooth-jazz, blues, and pop-like tunes. The tracks melody is played sometimes by the El. Guitar, sometimes by the Tenor Saxophone, sometimes by the Acoustic Piano, and sometimes by a combination of instruments.
Joining D. F. Michael on Dances And Walks are drummer and long time friend Mimmo Antonini (mimmoantonini.drumplayer.com), bass player Claudio Zanghieri (claudiozanghieri.com), guitar player and co-producer Alex Clementoni. The album is scheduled to be released in the United States around the beginning of November 2006 for the label Shallow Waters Group Records.
