Quotes About Michael
"It
isn't often that you run into the kind of talent that Michael has. His vocal
abilities are simply astounding".
"For such a young man he demonstrates an uncanny amount of composure and
dedication. He is sincere and diligent and is committed to his performing,
writing and singing career."
"Michael is always professional and I enjoy working with him. I truly

Randy Bachman
"Wow! He just blew me away,
what more can I say..."
Shelagh Rogers, CBC Radio host, Sounds Like
Canada
"Instantly he's got a captive audience
... Michael Carey wields an astonishing vocal prowess beyond his years."
Mark Webber - Central
Alberta Express
"Michael Carey had everyone's full attention the moment he hit his first
vocal note. Heads spinnin', new found fans were seen literally picking their
jaws up off their tables as the rising star performed a much too short,
three song set of traditional favorites that included a mind blowin' shot at
Leroy Van Dyke's classic 'The Auctioneer' which totally blew away the
wanting to hear more crowd! Carey's a genuine charmer with an awesome smooth
baritone voice that's twice his age and deservingly is currently causing
quite a stir in the industry, having been taken under the musical wings and
direction of Canadian rock legend Randy Bachman (of The Guess Who, Bachman
Turner Overdrive)." Ron Keessar - Country Music
