Michael J. Valentine is a signed recording artist with Spectra Music Group. Valentine is an avid songwriter, musician, and accomplished multi-instrumentalist with both the acoustic guitar and electric guitar, mandolin, ukulele, bass, drums, as well as the piano. While enjoying a melting pot of influences over his lifetime from rock to gospel, some may say Michael’s distinctive style defies categorizing. However, his true focus is always on timeless music to both uplift the soul, and inspire. Michael combines his deep musical background steeped in church and spiritual music with a love for rock and modern music to create positive songs with the continuous messages of faith, hope, and love.
Over his career, Michael is proud to have written a wide-ranging repertoire of over 100 songs across many genres. In 2019, he released the EP, “Light From Light,” recorded in the basement of Visitation Church in Los Angeles. "Light From Light" features fan-favorite songs, “Believe,” “Thy Will Be Done,” and “Light From Light.” This album showcases an individual’s spiritual calling, inner strength through God’s will, and the energy of positivity, as central, uplifting themes. In addition, Michael’s songwriting may be heard on the song, “Dreams Come True,” featuring vocals by Lourdes Mae. This original song, also penned by Michael, takes listeners back to the innocence reminiscent of a Disney film soundtrack.
In 2020, coupled with pursuing several sync and licensing deals, Michael has been hard at work on his most invigorating and inspirational songs to date for the forthcoming 12-track project aptly titled, “ALIVE.” With a release date of July 2023, “ALIVE” is filled with positive songs like "Brave", Beautiful Life", and "Rise" all around inner strength, gratitude, reflection, freedom - and simply feeling ALIVE.
