For
the last 10 years, Michael Berk has been stunning audiences
around the UK, performing over 200 shows with little more
than a guitar and the occasional percussionist.
London's famous 12 Bar Club calls him " one of the
few truly gifted acoustic guitar players around…
a true virtuoso".
Born on 23 March 1981, Michael began
playing at the age of 6 using his mother's old guitar
and a Beatles songbook. By the time he was 11, he was
playing professionally with bands.
Michael will add that unique touch to any occassion playing
his own arrangements of classic hits, Jazz and Classical
pieces in his own inimitable style.
Michael has recently returned from the United States having
performed in New Orleans, Memphis, Nashville, New York
and competed in the prestigious "National Fingerstyle
Guitarist of the Year Competition" held in Winfield,
Ks.
Music from Michael's debut album "Organized Chaos",
recently appeared on the documentary "Cancer Cures"
that aired on the 3rd Feb 2004 on ITV.
