About Michael Garfield

Michael Garfield writes music for which new words must be invented – intelligent, emotional performances that captivate attentive audiences with a rare mix of charm and virtuosity. Simultaneously tender and apocalyptic, chill and energetic, intensely technical yet vulnerable performances updating "solo artist with guitar" to suit an age of existential wonder.

Born from the musical DNA of Daniel Lanois, raised on the serenades of Jeff Buckley and Fiona Apple, then initiated into the melodic instrumental grooves of Ratatat and Four Tet, Michael's music challenges the categories of both "singer-songwriter" and "electronic live producer." Nimbly shifting in between deftly executed fretboard-tapping etudes, athletic songcraft of heart-breaking sweetness, and ecstatic improvisation, Michael inspires audiences with lush and atmospheric music spanning folk tradition and the avant-garde.
