In this episode, I share about the impact of Michael Knott’s life and art through music and vocal tributes. Shortly after Michael’s passing, I put a call out for friends to share voice tributes through text and social media messages. I have combined these tributes with musical clips from Michael’s extensive catalog to help me process the passing of this creative genius and dear soul. It’s amazing to hear from and read about how many individuals have pointed out that they never met Michael and yet they feel like they knew him. What an amazing legacy! I hope that fans of his work will enjoy reminiscing and hearing about the impact his life had on those who have shared in this episode. For those of you who are not familiar with Mike's work, you will hear pieces of Morrissey, Peter Murphy, Nick Cave, The Mission UK, Elliot Smith, and many others in his musical style. Please take some time to check out his music. Thank you so much for joining us in celebrating Michael's life!

Many thanks to Steven Guiles, Doug Gillis, Chris Taylor, Mark Feldbush, and Steve Chalk for sharing your voices in tribute!
