The Danny Michel songwriting juggernaut rolls ever onward. Prolific without spreading himself too thin, we can count on Michel to release an eclectic collection of well-crafted songs every couple of years.

Critical darling and Bowie acolyte Danny Michel gets his rocks off big-time on this lovingly rendered covers disc. The Kitchener native wisely sticks to lesser-known tracks — "Young Americans" is the only major hit — leaving him free to give his own spirited readings. Michel allows his virtuoso musicianship and gritty rasp to propel the...

Danny Michel — Tales From The Invisible Man

in
By Shannon Whibbs (CHARTattack) August 18, 2003 3:33 pm
The long-awaited follow-up to Michel’s 2001 album In The Belly Of The Whale is an experiment in eclecticism. The album’s opening track and first single is "Perfect." Literally. It is the ultimately catchy, well-crafted and perfect pop song. However, the album travels all over the map, from the Hawksley Workman-esque bounce-and-snap of...

Danny Michel Prepares His Version Of The Last Waltz

in
By Shannon Whibbs (CHARTattack) November 27, 2006 5:00 pm
Danny Michel is decidedly flustered on the telephone. He's just returned from the dentist, he's leaving on a Canadian east coast tour the next morning and he hasn't finished packing — and now he has to talk to ChartAttack with a frozen mouth full of Novocain. Actually, he sounds perfectly coherent, but I have to assure him that I won't sell...
