Michael G. Woodley – The Anomaly (2018)


Michael found music when he was very young, about 20 years ago. He picked up his Mom’s nylon string guitar (that he wasn’t really supposed to touch) and wanted to play it.

Debut album ‘The Mesmerist’ due for release May 11th 2018, The Mesmerist is also a beast of an album, with a ferocious sound that runs the gamut from original eighties shred to the most modern of progressive metal.
