Hey Friend!
As usual, I’ll make this quick. Here’s what I’m excited about right now:
- THE BEACHLAND TONIGHT!
For a long time, the Beachland Ballroom & Tavern in Cleveland has been one of my favorite places to see shows. Tonight, for the first time, I’ll be playing there! I’m thrilled to be sharing the stage with Star & Micey from Memphis, and my friends in Nick Wilkinson & The Featured Players. Click here for all the details.
- HOW TO CHANGE THE WORLD:
A few years ago, some filmmakers in North East Ohio asked if they could use my music in the feature-length film they were shooting, entitled “How To Change The World” – a comedy inspired by the screenwriter’s experience starting the Occupy Akron movement. As production moved along, the director asked if I’d be willing to write and record a “theme song” for the film. It’s been a long road from there to here, but the movie comes out THIS SATURDAY, and will premiere at the Nightlight Theater in Akron. You can learn more about it here:

And you can hear that song I wrote for the film here! https://michaelmcfarland.bandcamp.com/track/how-to-change-the-world-feat-jessica-nielsen
Big thanks to my friend Jessica Nielsen for adding her voice to this song and making the end sound HUGE. You can expect a music video for this in the very near future, so be sure to subscribe to my youtube channel to catch that!
- CAPE MAY BOUND – THE SOLO SOCIETY RIDES AGAIN!
For the fifth year running, I’ve been selected to showcase at the Singer-Songwriter Cape May conference & festival in Cape May, New Jersey. I’ll be heading there this weekend, along with my Solo Society partners-in-crime Kevin Conaway and Sean Benjamin.
I’ll be playing two shows this year:
Lucky Bones – Friday @ 9:00
Fins Bar & Grill – Saturday @ 10:45
On the way there tomorrow, we’ll be dropping by Magic 98.3 in Somerset, NJ to hang out on-air with Debbie Mazella, who recently featured me in her “On The Verge” segment: http://magic983.com/2015/11/05/debbies-verge-michael-mcfarland/ – if you’re in the area, be sure to tune in between 1:00 & 3:00!
- UNCOVERED & PERMANENTLY GEEK
The content channel Permanently Geek that some of my incredibly talented, creative, and funny friends and I started several months back is still growing, with new shows debuting and new episodes of the existing shows going up every week. I’m particularly proud of the show Uncovered that Kevin Conaway & I host, where we compare original versions of songs & their covers. Each week just gets more fun to shoot, and I think it comes through when watching the show. Check out a playlist of all the episodes here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLtb-y8K3zI-scF7gw4Ssogmrd1JFdHedG
I think that’s all I’ve got for now. For all the day-to-day, up-to-the-minute, edge-of-your-seat happenings, be sure to like my facebook page.
Take care, hope to see you soon!
