Muse Chronicle

Micheal Fordays has been making waves in the Los Angeles music scene with his unique approach to rock music. The multi-instrumentalist handles vocals, guitar, and bass duties himself, showing the kind of hands-on creative control that many artists strive for.

“Music becomes medicine when it speaks to shared wounds.”

“The Life We Live” marks an important step for Fordays as he works toward what he calls “a higher artistic level.” This track was produced alongside Dave Klein, who also brings drums and keyboards to the table. There is obvious chemistry between the two musicians, especially in how the drums and bass lock together to create a solid foundation for everything else. The production is consistently solid. The guitar tones are crisp and present, cutting through the mix nicely while the bass adds warmth to the low end.

Fordays is thinking about the state of the world and our responsibilities to each other, but he presents these ideas through good old-fashioned rock music rather than trying to reinvent the wheel. “The Life We Live” suggests that Fordays is pushing himself creatively. The performances are solid, and the songwriting shows real growth. As the first single from his upcoming collection, it sets expectations high for what’s to come. This is the kind of rock music that reminds you why the genre still matters.
