Michael LeClerc Live at Lorimar Winery

Lorimar Vineyards and Winery always has something great going on. Every Friday and Saturday we have a local artist take to the stage from 6-9. Tonight’s local artist is Michael LeClerc.

In May of 2007, Canadian Singer Songwriter Michael LeClerc started the band, “Smooth Bill” who was invited to open for the multiple Juno Award winning and Canadian Music Hall of Fame band, "The Tragically Hip" in the Cayman Islands, performing for 3,000 enthusiastic fans. "Smooth Bill" began circulating radio stations online and in the Cayman Islands. Michael decided to quit all other distractions and focus solely on his music career. In September of 2010, Michael recorded his solo EP at 4th Street Recording Studio, Santa Monica, CA produced by Platinum Producer, Jim Wirt (Incubus, Fiona Apple, Live, Hoobastank) and self released it in the Spring of 2011. It didn’t take long for the single "Radio" to get airplay on many stations throughout the US, Cayman Islands, and Canada. In the summer of 2011, LeClerc and well known Cayman Lead Guitarist Jonathan Ebanks toured the EP for 3 months throughout California. LeClerc has since moved to California and bought a van where he slept for many months while he concentrated on his career.

Michael is being featured at Wineries up and down the West Coast of California and has been a featured performer in the Renaissance Hotels RLIFE Concert Series featuring the best of emerging Indie artists playing as far north as Vancouver, British Columbia.

Come on out and enjoy a great night out with a glass of wine and Michael LeClerc. Or check out our website www.lorimarwinery.com to see what else we have planned. Cheers!
