"Michael sets the bar high when it comes to live performances .
His vocals and guitar work are strong ,soulful and inspired .
Michael plays multiple instruments and you can tell .
He layers vocals ,rhythm and lead guitar together in a fluid sequence that provided him a accompaniment and a platform for his improvised lead guitar work .
I attended Michael's live shows downtown Austin bout a dozen times,
and every show was a pleasant surprise .
If u enjoy blues guitar, Soul & Root rock , this will be a treat .

Michael is a accomplished Blues Soul Artist and musician ...
He performs old school rhythm & blues songs
from a catalog of musical legends like BB King , Muddy Water ,Freddy King Otis Redding , Albert collins ,Bobby Blue Bland , Eric Clapton , Ray Charles ... and puts his twist on them …
Heartfelt , intense and passionate are a few words that come to mind while listening to him .

All the attendees were mesmerized by his performance.
He plays covers and some of his own material.
He loves what he does and plays a great selection of Rhythm & blues .
He helped make the gathering more enjoyable.
He is a very talented musician.
I recommend to anyone who needs party entertainment

“Coleman's approach to writing originals and playing favorite standards is propelled forward by his integrity to sound and performance quality and is discernible
in his every verse, riff, and solo. I've known Michael since our Austin days playing and honing our craft for large crowds in the famed music district downtown.
Since then I've bought, listened to, and watched his live streams from beautiful venues across the Midwest and Southwest.
He has only gotten more seasoned and professional with all of this experience.
He has also gained a deep knowledge and even deeper appreciation for the genres He has stayed dedicated to by playing the places that gave birth to so many of the varieties and delineating tributaries of fertile American Song - Blues being one of them.
Michael is sure to impress with his attention to detail, attentiveness to the sound demands of any sized room, and ability to keep the energy high and tasteful for the whole performance. Michael Coleman Grondin has a unique yet very accessible show
that is flexible to fit any occasion,
but never wavering in quality, passion, and integrity.”

Recently Michael Coleman Grondin has been putting his music out to the world for all to share in his passion. On “Big Legged Woman”, he flashes his blues guitar skills with a melody that catches attention and takes the listener on a winding road. His lyrics are emotional and sung with earnest as he takes you through the story. We really get a deep Blues taste with “Wait On Time”. This is classic Blues that puts you in the room with a true storyteller. Toes will tap and heads will nod as the song reaches from the stage. This is Blues for true Blues lovers.
