Michael McDermott Brings the 'Noise' at The Living Room

Chicago native Michael McDermott returned to NYC for his first show here in over a year at The Living Room Wednesday night, where he performed songs from his upcoming One Little Indian release 'Noise From Words' (August 28). I've never heard a singer fill that room with sound like Michael did that night- he has an amazingly powerful, passionate voice, and his guitar playing is incredible.

As McDermott jokingly described it from the stage, the show was more of a "confession" than a concert, as he shared stories, some funny, some sad, from his life. For example, He introduced the song "My Father's Son" with the tale of how he and his dad both spent time (in different years) in the same Chicago jail.

McDermott will be back at Living Room on August 15 and 29, so if you missed this show be sure to mark your calendar to check him out then! And you can watch the video for his song "Mess of Things" here
