A Few Reviews of Michael

"Just tell Michael to keep writing and singing.  He's a real treasure"
-Pete & Maura Kennedy

"Michael Troy writes some of the best lyrics I've heard in a long time!"
- Sonny Ochs

"Michael inhabits his songs, not in an analytical sense, but rather as a form of universal connection and communion with the human spirit."
-From Southcoast Tribune

"Michael Troy's songs tell the stories of people we recognize instantly. Mined from wisdom and experience hard-won, his language and poetry reveal true meaning sifted from raw fact, and, like our best songwriters, he leads us to revelations about ourselves. This is a songwriter who bears repeated listening."
-Geoff Bartley

"Michael Troy. Born and raised in the tough mill town of Fall River, MA, in many ways his life reflects that of the common folk. Having spent parts of his life as a carpenter, mill-worker, and fisherman, and most of his adult life as a husband and father, Michael has traveled many paths.

But one might be too quick to judge the man, his life, or his talents as anything common. His working-class background can camouflage that creative flame that burns within him. And the man is talented. His words immediately strike me with their gut felt honesty and truth. How long has it been since a singer/songwriter really touched your soul...no I mean really got inside! A wonderful storyteller with melody, a deep rich voice, excellent finger-pickin' skills and something of substance to say. What more can we ask for in a modern troubador? By all means give him a listen."

"I had never heard of Michael Troy until they sent me Whispers On The Wind. The needle hasn't even completely settled on how great I think this guy and his album really is, but I can't stop playing it. He's like the Tom Pacheco of Fall River Mass."
