Bio:

My name is Michael Sookochoff. I play guitar and stress the muscles in my throat while simultaneously breathing in a way that makes noise. I make music.

Sorry I haven't been updating regularly, I sort of have a busy schedule over here. For those of you who don't know - I am studying in Athens, Greece until late May.

Those who are crazy enough to be reading this, you will be happy to know that although I am thousands of miles away from home, I have bought a guitar over here and am continuing to write songs and poems. In fact, I have crappily recorded a couple of tunes under what I am calling "From a Distant Apartment" (for obvious reasons). If I can convert them to mp3s you may be seeing them soon.

I've recorded a couple of songs of my own, including the new ones "One More Barrier" and "Hotelling", and did a cover of a Bright Eyes song with a couple verses of my own added in, "Landlocked Blues". Hope I can get them up here, and I hope you will enjoy them!

Hey everyone!

Just writing this to thank you all for the support you've given! This has been a really busy time for me recently, and I soon must leave you all for 6 months! You guys have been the best: 1) I didn't expect to get so many plays so quickly; 2) there is an awesome profile view - to - play ratio, which rocks my world!

Again, thank you guys so much.

Music stays alive through community: support music piracy.

Take care

Michael

Hello. On music notes...

I'm in the midst of a huge present for you guys: the Comeback music video! Yay! Visual stimulation! It has guitars, and gerbils, and fish, oh my!

Also, I recently finished recording a new song called 'Jumps the Tracks'. It is a good song, it would be a better one if someone else did it! So I will probably have that up today at some point.

Keep it real,

Michael

Hey everybody! Thanks for checking out the site. I don't have an official website (hell, I don't even have a CD...) so this will serve as such! You can also check out my other site: www.myspace.com/iagomusic . This, however, is the site that I will be keeping updated, and will put my new songs on here (once recorded, that is...)

Thanks again, and tell your friends!

Michael
