Editorial review
New age music has now been around long enough for a second generation of performers to have developed, and 27-year-old Jeffrey Michael, for whom After the Storm is his sixth nationally distributed, self-released effort (that's not counting the tapes he began selling at high school when he was 15) and his first to employ only acoustic piano, is a member of that generation. He sounds like it, too. He began playing at six, and at seven he could play the theme from Chariots of Fire (from the sound of "Painted Moon" on this album, he's never stopped playing it). You also have to figure that when he was ten, he must have seen The Princess Bride, because "Beyond the Horizon (No. 184)" (the number indicates that this was his 184th composition) recalls that movie's theme, "Storybook Love." At 11, he was introduced to albums by the first generation of new age pianists, George Winston, David Lanz, and Suzanne Ciani, by an uncle. Clearly, those experiences never left, either. Michael describes "The Storm" as "inspired and influenced by the music of George Winston, especially 'February Sea' (a track on Winston's Winter into Spring album)." The truth is that Winston's inspiration and influence are heard throughout the album. The millions who treasure Winston's album December will find much to their liking here. If it's not too early, or too odd, to coin a musical style called "traditional new age," After the Storm is one of the first albums to which it would apply. ~ William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide
Bio / Background
If you like Enya, Yanni or George Winston, then you'll absolutely fall in love with the music of Jeffrey Michael.
Only in his 20’s composer, pianist and recording artist Jeffrey Michael has performed for millions of people and sold over 250,000 CD’s worldwide with his self-promotion strategy and record label Fireheart Music.
Jeffrey Michael grew up in Sterling Heights and Novi, Michigan. As a 2 year old he used to bang on his Great Grandmother’s piano. In 1983 she passed away and her piano was passed along to Jeffrey’s mother. She actually told him not to touch the piano for fear that he would damage it at such a young age. Naturally, he disobeyed her and began playing the piano by ear when he was 6 years old, going on to compose his own music by 11 years old. Jeffrey does not read music but rather is a self-taught musician who utilizes his excellent ear for his music and composes using a special shorthand that he developed as a child prodigy.
