Prior to the evening of the fifth America’s Got Talent season finale, no one would have given Michael Girmm a chance of winning compared to the favorites, Prince P and Jackie? True enough, every show has its own twist of fate; you can’t expect anything more unpredictable than the result of a talent show. After putting forth his best effort a night prior to the finale, Michael Grimm was selected as the next America’s Got Talent winner. Michael’s music can now be listened to on internet radio.

 

Brought up by his grandparents in Mississippi, Michael has had a talent for music ever since he was five years old. With the help and support of his grandmother, he started to play at local restaurants and bars. Not only was he an excellent singer but additionally, he was a very good guitarist and song writer. His music gradually transitioned to Southern soul. Being extremely ambitious, he traveled from Mississippi to Las Vegas where he hoped to get his opportunity at stardom.


You would not believe it but Michael didn’t get his chance when he first auditioned on season 4. On season five, his first televised audition was very popular. After three months of trying, the title was awarded to Michael by the vote of viewers despite some very talented competition. Now that the show is over, what’s Michael’s next move?


Or course, since becoming the America’s Got Talent grand winner, you won’t see Michael performing at small clubs and casinos like he did in the past. To find Michael, you won’t have to go far, just turn on your radio or television. He has appeared on different TV shows as well as radio stations. He is now busy touring the country with the America’s Got Talent cast. In addition, you can listen to his music on record bars which have dominated the chart for several weeks. Naturally, you can expect him to produce more and more albums in the coming months. You will be able to locate more of his music via online radio.

 

Right now, he is busy with concerts, recordings and guestings. One of his most current appearances was at the inaugural Museum of Tolerance International Film Festival Gala that was conducted to honor Clint Eastwood. Also on the show was American Idol winner Taylor Hicks. He also appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show where he asked his long time girlfriend, Lucy, to marry him.

Michael has also had a live performance in Mississippi with Martina Macbride. Tickets were selling like hot cakes there. Together with Epic Records, he plans to launch his new album next year. His schedule will most likely be quite full until the end of the year.


A self described, humble boy from Mississippi, Michael is committed to share his winnings with his grandparents, since their house was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina. Let’s hope to see more of his success in real and reel life. Another talent has been produced and will mark the history of America’s show business
