Over the course of his eminent career, Michael has written, produced and played on albums that have sold millions of copies worldwide. As the original drummer for Santana, Michael – at age nineteen – was the youngest performer at Woodstock.
Michael’s recording credits include the masters of popular and avant-garde music – Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones, George Harrison, Pete Townsend, Steve Winwood, Police guitarist Andy Summers, film composer Mark Isham, and such musical luminaries as John Mclaughlin, Stomu Yamash’ta, Klaus Schulze, Freddie Hubbard, Jaco Pastorius, Wayne Horvitz, Bill Frisell, Zakir Hussain, Airto Moriera and Amon Tobin.
Michael continues to strive for innovative approaches to percussion-based music, and records with both renowned and emerging artists (Skerik, Jack DeJohnette, Zakir Hussain, Reggie Watts), in addition to his own band, Spellbinder. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1998 and in 2005, Michael received the Guitar Center’s first annual Lifetime Achievement Award.
Spellbinder features Danny Godinez (guitars), Joe Doria (Hammond B3), Farko Dosumov (bass), and John Fricke (trumpet).

I’m looking forward to this show! I had heard that Michael lives in Seattle and teaches drums. I used to play drums in high school (1970-73) and Michael was one of my early influences (along with Ginger Baker and Ringo!).
I’ve been going to see Spellbinder for years. Every show is mesmerizing. Tomorrow is my birthday and I’d love to celebrate at this show on Friday night.
Just discovered Spellbinder AND (believe it or not) I’ve yet to have been in the Highway 99 Blues Club, after living here since 1993. EEK!! Let me in!!!! (Thanks.)
Congratulations Laurie!
