His career has taken him across the United States, performing in concert halls, colleges, clubs, and festivals, as well as internationally in Europe and Africa.

He has released six albums, with his 2015 release "Circulation" earning a spot on NPR’s Best Jazz Albums of the Year list. Michael has received multiple accolades for his work, including two nominations for Best Jazz Artist of the Year from the Capital Region Thomas Edison Music Awards (The Eddies).  He was named Best Jazz Musician of the Year (2023) by WCDB Radio, SUNY Albany (90.9 FM).
