Northern California musician, writer and teacher, Michael Stadler was raised in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, A sparsely populated, starkly beautiful place, the U.P. is bordered by Lake Superior, empty sand beaches, and nearly unbroken expanses of forest. Life there requires perseverance and luck -- that’s why one of the area’s chief exports is people. Whether vocals, guitar, fiddle, banjo, mandolin or bass, Michael’s passion for his music is immediately obvious. Michael appears solo on various broadcast outlets and in such venues as Berkeley's Freight & Salvage, where he’s shared the bill with John Gorka, Greg Brown, Peppino D’Agostino, John McCormick and Joel Mabus, and in the Fiddling Cricket concert series in San Jose, CA. Catch him at High Street Station!
