DUANE MICHAELS & "Christmas Hope"

Native of Toledo Ohio Duane Michaels has lived in Nashville Tennessee for the past 13 years. Basically in search of that big break in country music. He has done the rounds of showcase gigs including the famous Bluebird Café and to date has cut a couple of albums. The first being the well-accepted “Little Bit Of Love” and the second “Ladies Choice” which includes his single “(If It Weren’t For Country Music) I’d Go Crazy”, which has scored on the European Country Music charts. Also his new single “Heartbreak Highway”.

As a singer musician Duane does over 200 gigs a year playing all kinds of music accompanying himself on accordion and being multi lingual having the ability to sing in 5 different languages, singing from light opera to Glen Miller. But his real love is country music.

On November 13, 2006, my life changed drastically. My oldest son, Duane Joseph, 11, was diagnosed with Type 1 Juvenile Diabetes. I can't begin to tell you how this affected me. Watching my son change from a healthy young boy, to being dependent on insulin shots 2 times a day, had left me feeling helples. As a father, my feelings of rage, anger and denial consumed me in between the tears I shed for my son. After a while, I realized that this behavior wasn't helping Duane Joseph. I started to wonder what I could do to help my son and other children with this disease, fight back. The only way I knew best was to utilize the talent that God gave me and that was witih my voice.

The proceeds of this Christmas album will benefit the research process for Junenile diabetes. A cure that is so close to being discovered still needs additional assistance in becoming a reality for these children.

Your generosity in purchasing one of these albums will help win the fight against Type 1 Juvenile Diabetes. The support and educational services that my son and family continue to receive from many sources has been second to none. We have learned that having diabetes does not have to change your life or lifestyle. However, diabetes must be attended to everyday and not ignored and that is the hard part.

Thank you and God bless you for your support,
Duane Michaels.
