About this listen

"Michael Cartellone is more than just a musician. When he is not on tour, he trades his drumsticks for paintbrushes, producing mesmerizing works of art." - Kim I Plyler

Michael Cartellone, born June 7, 1962, in Cleveland, Ohio, has had a balanced dual passion for

music and art since childhood. He began painting at the age of four and drumming at the age of

nine, leading to a professional music career that took off when he played his first bar gig at the

age of 11. After many years on the club circuit, Michael moved to New York City at 22, where he

performed with notable musicians like Eddie Jobson and Tommy Shaw before joining the multi-

platinum band Damn Yankees. Over the years, Michael has recorded and toured with icons

such as John Fogerty, Peter Frampton, John Wetton, Freddie Mercury, Cher, Adrian Belew,

Accept, and, of course, Lynyrd Skynyrd.
