Our songlist expands weekly and and covers music from the 60's to now, with a focus on more current hits than other bands in the area. We have a good sized following in Western WI and the Twin Cities and fantastic references. Here's what they're saying about recent performances:

 

"This is one of the best shows around. Michael Paul and his awesome drummer always bring the party!"
-Joe Ehlenz, Smalley's Pirate Bar (Stillwater, MN)

 

"These guys are truly amazing and know how to make your event one that you will never forget! Everyone LOVED every song that was played... and Joel and I were touched to have you play our first dance live. That meant the world to us. Thank you."
-Shauna Munson (Newport. MN)

 

"Michael Paul did a great job! A nice change from the traditional DJ. He is a great choice for a wedding couple that would really like a band as opposed to a DJ, but working on a tight budget."
-Jean Chalupsky (Loretto, MN)

 

"The overall service you provide is awesome and the quality of your entertainment is superb! I had many compliments on the variety of music and the showmanship. You can't go wrong with the
Michael Paul Duo"

How are you going to use everything a show like this has to offer?

Born just outside of Gary, Indiana, Michael Paul started playing drums with his father's bands at the age of eight. During his teen years Michael and his family lived in Denver, Colorado where he refined his style of drumming in school marching and jazz bands as well as adding singing, and keyboards to his musicianship. Michael formed his first band in middle school and he and his friends played dances, skating rinks, fairs and festivals, and even the occasional bar when they could get away with it. After high school he and his teen bandmates parted ways and Michael joined Reaction, a top 40 cover band which toured nightclubs across the western half of the US. One year later, while traveling through Nevada, Michael joined forces with drummer Gennaro "Jeep" Capone and trumpet player Allen Young in the Chicago-based group Jamtrak. The group spent the next decade in top casinos on the Las Vegas strip raising the bar for variety acts and adding the stunning visuals which have become standard in Michael's current show. Today you can find Michael fronting his lager group "The Las Vegas Allstars" and his outrageous duo act for casinos and events across the US.
