Michael Paynter

It's a natural progression that, at the age of 24, the Melbourne-born singer, lyricist, and multi-instrumentalist has harnessed his talents to release his debut EP Love The Fall. Michael has travelled the globe four times in as many years, and written with the finest in his field, from Guy Chambers [Robbie Williams] and Adam Argyle [Newton Faulkner] in the UK, to Toby Gad [Beyonce, Black Eyed Peas] and David Ryan Harris [John Mayer] in the US.

Apart from winning coveted support slots for Newton Faulkner, Vanessa Amorosi, and soul legend Seal, Michael's personal highlights over the last couple of years have seen him performing at the emotional Bushfire Memorial Service with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra and a 500 member choir. He is most known for his track “Love the fall” which hit number 19 on the Australian charts and he has just toured with Miley Cyrus in 2011.
