After THE MOTELS had disbanned, MICHAEL stayed on with MARTHA for her
first solo Lp "Policy" playing bass for some of the tracks. He even
was in her back-up band for the tour to promote her first solo album.
Afterwards, MICHAEL migrated back to his hometown of Albuquerque, New
Mexico, where he currently lives working as a medical technician. But
music is still a part of his life, and in the Spring of 2000, MICHAEL
began work on a solo musical project that led to the creation of his
debut CD. The CD, titled Flesh and Blood was released in the Spring of 2000.

Though primarily known only as the bass player for THE MOTELS, MICHAEL
also possesses the talent for writing, and penned several of the
band's tunes including: "Careful" and "Bonjour Baby" with MARTY JOURARD,
and "Tables Turned" with MARTHA DAVIS.
