About this user

Years of drumming for bands such as the Whiskey Sournotes, the Regulars, and Speedway can make a great singer-songwriter of a man. Quinn follows in the footsteps of many other great drummers turned singer-songwriters: Dave Grohl, Don Henley, and more recently, Pete Yorn.
Never mind the drumming, though. For those of you yet unacquainted with Quinn, youll soon discover that its all about the songs. Quinn first recognized his life path as a musician when he was four years old. His grandmother took him to the Grand Ole Opry to see Johnny Cash- and from that moment on, music was his life. Quinn moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA in 1986 to start drumming with his first band, Thought Factory. He has continued to drum for over 50 bands, all the while learning guitar and studying the craft of songwriting. He earned a music degree from McNally-Smith College of Music in Minneapolis in 1992 and went on to travel all over the United States and Europe as a musician. It wasnt until just before the turn of the century that he finally decided it was time to perform his own songs.

Now, 9 years, hundreds of gigs, and many thousand miles later; Quinn has released his follow up recording to 2004s critically acclaimed sushi, sex, music. Released in July of 2009, Whiskey Rebellion is a diverse musical testament to Quinns road tested sound. From the Hawaiian flavored Road to Hana (featuring Andy Dee on steel guitar) to the in your face garage rocker, Sunday Dress, Whiskey Rebellion has more flavor than grandmas homemade fried chicken! It is Quinns honesty and humor that ring true on his songs. From soulful singing and frank lyrics, to timeless song structures, Quinns live shows are an all out good time. Whether he performs solo or with his band, he is engaging, giving his all for every note of every song and ALWAYS has the audience on their feet! Michael cares about his music, wants people to have a great time, and the fans know it.
