Michael Davis

* Michael Davis released his debut self produced full length album, "Leading Me to Life," on April 23, 2017 *

Michael Davis is a Christian singer/songwriter and worship leader who crafts his modern pop/rock sound as a producer in his own studio, playing almost every instrument on his recordings. You'll hear the variety of Michael's musical upbringing in his songs, as he grew up with classical piano and orchestral bass training, then moved into rock driven electric guitar and drum playing in middle and high school bands.

At 16 years old, Michael had hopes of becoming a full time studio musician, simply playing on other peoples albums. Those plans shifted and expanded as God opened doors for Michael to begin leading worship at 18 years old, having grown up playing music in church and deeply experiencing God at a young age. Michael began to see the opportunity to use his musical gifting's for more than a fun career, but as a way to spread the Good News across the world through his own songs.

For the past 9 years, since that first opportunity to lead as an 18 year old, God has opened door after door for Michael as a worship leader and a recording artist. Michael released his first 3 song EP in 2011. In 2013 Michael was in his first movie. He performed his original song, "I Need You" in the theatrical film "The Investigator" and was included on the soundtrack. Michael self-produced a second 3 song EP in 2013 as well.

Michael spent over 3 years writing and producing his newest release, which is his first full length album, "Leading Me to Life." He played most instruments on the album and recorded and mixed it all in his own studio in Florida.

Currently, Michael is a worship leader at the Greenhouse Church in Gainesville, FL. He also runs his recording studio and gives music lessons on guitar, bass, and drums.

Here's a glimpse into Michael's heart on creating music:

"When you write songs and play them on a stage, you’re typically labeled a ‘performer,’ but my desire really isn’t to 'perform' for my own recognition. My desire anytime I step on stage is to point people to Jesus. To give Him all the glory. My desire is to worship; and lead people in that direction. The songs I write are usually sung to the Lord, and are made to show the world how great His love for us all truly is.”

On top of leading every week at his home church, Michael travels regularly both with his band and by himself to lead at conferences, retreats, youth camps, and other special events.

Michael also has a heart to help plant and grow churches all over the world. He graduated from Southeastern University with a degree in Practical Theology with plans of devoting his life to whatever ministry call God has, even beyond just music.
