Michael Knott. The man, the myth, the one that got away. You should have been a fan of his from day one way back in 1981, but you missed the opportunity. And now he has about 10,000 albums out, and you can't even begin to try and buy them all. But his work is so good that you feel compelled to try. Art this good should be all over the radio airwaves, blaring from every car stereo, and being remade into cheesy elevator music compilations.
Michael Knott's "music" is impossible to classify, unless you want to use the generic "alternative" label. That's about as far as you can go. You can usually classify one or two styles that influence each album, if you are lucky. Some albums have a heaviness to them, others are purely Mike and his acoustic guitar. From gothic to power pop to industrial to Americana, Michael Knott has covered them all.
And that's just where the story starts. From painter to producer, from starting a record company to pouring baked beans all over himself in concert, Michael has stretched himself in every creative way possible. This site is just an attempt to catalog all of these creative outlets. Let the insanity begin.
