• Additional Info: Cincinnati singer-songwriter Michael Marcagis ascent is a homegrown success story.With a career built largely through grass roots social media support, the folk-rock singerhas demonstrated that listeners are hungry for earnest storytelling rooted in age-oldAmerican musical traditions. His debut Warner Records EP, American Romance,expands on that promise, highlighting the timeless sound and engaging sense ofemotional truth that has made Marcagis music so immediately compelling.Marcagi never undermines his listeners or takes them for granted. Audiences areusually smarter than the musicians they are listening to, he says. For him, theresplenty of evidence that modern listeners of all generations understand and connect withspecificity and sophistication in songwriting. This is part of why he aspires to remain asopen and approachable as possiblein both his music and his public persona. If whathas happened in his career during the past year is any indication, he may be on tosomething.I want people to feel like they know me, Marcagi says. Ive never reallyconnected to that mysterious rock band thingfour blurry faces in a field where you dont know who the guys are. I dont want to hide.
