Saw him at Gaslamp District in San Diego Sep26-27. It was amazing. Sat and listened to him for almost 20 minutes. It is ridiculous how many people just walk on by.
It's actually a "bowhammered dulcimer." Michael Masley invented those bowhammered hand thingies- they are the only ones in the world as a result. Very cool, I think : )
I've only met him once, but at the time he was just performing on the Embarcadero (SF) in front of the Arganaut, I think- performing and selling CDs in the early evening. That was maybe a year ago, but I took the impression that he performs there regularly. If you live near the Bay Area, you could give it a shot...?
Not only is Mr. Michael Masley a brilliant and entirely original musician, he's the FIRST Artist General of the United States of America, God bless him!
THUMBS UP if you just typed the URL you saw on AD

I've seen Michael play the past 2 years at MacWorld! What a treat amidst the traffic and street noise! His CDs are out of this world, too!
