Michael Minelli

Michael Minelli is a Connecticut-born and LA-based singer and songwriter that has earned the praise of everyone from Ryan Seacrest to BuzzFeed.

“I spent a lot of time understanding who I am as an artist,” he says. “Everything has a groove to it, and it’s all based on rhythms. There’s a pop feel, but there’s also a hip-hop element. It’s always soulful though.”

 “I want to be a positive role model and give people a form of therapy. That’s what music has done for me since I first stepped on stage in fourth grade. I want kids to understand you can come from anywhere and make it as long as you believe in yourself.”

“Soul is the core of everything. 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’.”
