EXTRA EXTRA.......

Hey Everybody,

It is with intense excitement I am here to announce the official beginning of the next KICKSTARTER for the next ALBUMS!

TWO ALBUMS? HUH?

Yeah, not a double album. Two distinctly different albums. I just couldn't see how it could all work as one piece of work. I decided, why not two different albums. With the world's shrinking attention span (I recently read humans now have a smaller attention span than goldfish) this might be unwise, difficult and challenging. Difficult, challenging and unwise are my wheelhouse. For anyone who read the memoir, you probably know this.

I am really thrilled with these songs and I think they are very different, some not so much but the process of writing these albums has been quite different. I needed a different road and sought out a different process. I truly believe this Kickstarter is the best yet, with much input from the team we are thrilled with the rewards and opportunities that are offered. I'm humbled beyond belief of the community we have built together, the way we support one another, the friendships forged. It's been a gift I could never have dreamed of.

Once more into the breach..... https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/michaelmcdermott/michael-mcdermott-two-new-albums​

I thank you in advance for all of your help, loyalty, love and support.

Much love and immense gratitude to each and every one of you....

and of course....

Peace, Love and Brilliant Colors to you all...

Michael's Memoir "Scars From Another Life
- Now Available in the Store

NEW REVIEW 6/16: https://natureinchicago.wordpress.com/2023/06/16/michael-mcdermotts-memoir-scars-from-another-life-tells-the-story-of-his-addiction-and-redemption/​

​www.michael-mcdermott.com/store​

Scars From Another Life chronicles the life of singer/songwriter Michael McDermott, whose harrowing journey through drink, drugs, guns, and self-destruction saw him incarcerated, financially ruined, and spiritually bankrupt.
​
A white-knuckle ride from small-town obscurity to the heady pages of Rolling Stone, The New York Times, and The Washington Post... From the glitter to the gutter and the long road back, McDermott’s down-and-out determination to transcend his demons is a story of the redemptive power of finding oneself in sobriety, family, and the healing salvation of song.
