Get to know Riser House’s new signee, Karl Michael. Here’s 5 awesome facts about the British artist and writer taking over music row!
From McDonalds to Millions (of streams)
Trying to make ends meet, Michael worked at a London McDonalds, and then a construction site, while he figured out how to move to Nashville. Now, Michael has penned songs for other artists that have garnered over 100 million total streams on Spotify. And he’s just getting started…
Star power
Karl worked with Bruno Mars to write “Can We Dance” by The Vamps. Other credits include “Beautiful Me” by Dappy and “Loner” by YUNGBLUD. He also has releases by fellow European label artists such as Andrea Faustini, Arlissa, Tulisa, and John de Sohn.
He will give you chills
Karl’s covers of Harry Styles’ “Adore You” & Justin Bieber’s “Changes” will give you chills. Don’t believe us? Listen for yourself.
It all starts with a song
In a very “only-in-Nashville” story, a chance co-write in late 2018 with Riser House songwriter, Dallas Wilson, led to a song that has changed the course of Karl Michael’s career. After Wilson turned in a rough demo of “Highs and The Lows” (releasing August 28), the team at Riser House had to meet the man behind the voice. Over the following year, Michael spent time between London, Nashville and LA penning and producing the first collection of songs that truly represent Karl Michael, the artist.
What’s next
With the recent release of his debut single, “Beautiful Creature”, Michael has stepped out into the spotlight for his artist debut. It is the first of several coming singles this summer and fall, which were recorded in Nashville and LA with all-star producers Jon Levine (Dua Lipa, Alessia Cara, The Struts) and Scott Spock (Rihanna, Britney Spears, Avril Lavigne).
