Michael Cartellone, born June 7, 1962, in Cleveland, Ohio, has balanced dual passions 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. Yet, many are just now discovering Michael's talent with a paintbrush. During breaks from touring, Michael immerses himself in his art, creating pieces that have been showcased in galleries across New York City, Phoenix, Washington, D.C., Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Fort Collins, Colorado, Long Island, New York, and now at Arete Art Gallery. Do not miss this chance to connect with a multi-faceted artist whose creativity extends beyond the stage and into the world of visual art.
