Michael Cartellone, born June 7,
1962, in Cleveland, Ohio,
has balanced dual passions for music and art since childhood.
He began painting at the age of four and drumming at the age
of nine, leading to a professional music career that took off
when he played his first bar gig at the age of 11. After many
years on the club circuit, Michael moved to New York City at 22, where he performed
with notable musicians like Eddie
Jobson and Tommy Shaw before
joining the multi-platinum band Damn Yankees. Over the years,
Michael has recorded and toured with icons such as
John Fogerty, Peter Frampton, John
Wetton, Freddie Mercury,
Cher, Adrian Belew, Accept, and, of course, Lynyrd
Skynyrd. Yet, many are just now discovering Michael's talent
with a paintbrush. During breaks from touring, Michael
immerses himself in his art, creating pieces that have been
showcased in galleries across New
York City, Phoenix,
Washington, D.C., Las Vegas, Los
Angeles, Fort Collins, Colorado, Long
Island, New York, and now
at Arete Art Gallery. Do not miss this chance to connect with
a multi-faceted artist whose creativity extends beyond the
