A great voice will tell you exactly who's behind it. When Michael Minelli sings, you know it's him. With show-stopping delivery, dynamic range, and timeless panache, the Connecticut born & raised singer/songwriter immediately sets himself apart. It's no surprise he's earned the praise of everyone from Ryan Seacrest to BuzzFeed. For Minelli, it's all a matter of soul. "Soul is the core of everything," he affirms. "It's that thing you can't put your finger on. Anytime somebody hears my music, I want them to immediately say, 'That's a Michael Minelli record? With over a decade of experience as an artist, Minelli seems to finally have hit his stride gaining millions of views, hundreds of thousands of followers & a 300% increase in streams all during the first month of being active on tiktok singing his song in public all over the country. This has even got him on the bill for national tours, big festivals & even fox news! With the world at his fingertips, Michael set the foundation for 2022 to be the long awaited explosion he dreamed of as a kid. With major label deals, huge sponsorships, viral videos & an experienced team in his back pocket, there's no telling where you might see him next!
