From his 1997 self-titled debut album through his Memphis inspired and star-studded new CD, Silver Lining, Michael Lington has wowed, seduced and surprised his fans continuously with infectious melodies, rich emotion, funky grooves and a powerful innate force that can only be described as pure soul. The contemporary jazz superstar has gone mainstream. He's full steam ahead like no one's ever heard him before, blazing a fresh, innovative road for himself with a freewheeling immersion into the heart of the 60's and 70's Memphis Soul vibe. All of the beloved saxophonist's previous acclaimed recordings, countless hit radio singles and hundreds of awe inspiring live performances over the past 20 years are now simply a prelude to the fresh energy and live excitement he has created on his new album, Silver Lining.
In his career, Lington has collaborated with many other top artists, including Michael Bolton, Barry Manilow, Aaron Neville, Taylor Dayne, Bobby Caldwell, Randy Crawford and many others. When he's not recording or performing, he manages his own cigar company, Michael Lington Cigars, and he recently launched Lington Wines, his own boutique line of fine wines out of Paso Robles on California's Central Coast.
