Handpicked by Billy Joel to star in the hit Broadway musical Movin’ Out, Michael Cavanaugh takes the stage at Moraine Valley with The Music of Billy Joel & Elton John, which features the greatest hits of these two pop-rock piano legends. Songs include Piano Man, Rocket Man, Bennie and the Jets, Movin’ Out, I’m Still Standing, My Life, and many more!
Billboard calls Michael the “new voice of the American rock ‘n’ roll songbook” and his charismatic performance made him famous for his piano and lead vocals in the 2002 hit Broadway musical Movin’ Out. Michael received both Tony and GRAMMY award nominations for the lead role, and he appeared in the show for three years with more than 1,200 performances, receiving multiple accolades.
It wasn’t long before symphony orchestras discovered Michael’s talents and audience appeal. He accepted his first orchestral booking, Michael Cavanaugh – The Songs of Billy Joel and More, which debuted in April 2008 with the Indianapolis Symphony and continues to tour today. In October 2008, he signed with Warner/ADA to distribute his first CD, In Color. In 2010, Michael debuted his second symphony show in the Generations of Rock series titled Michael Cavanaugh: The Songs of Elton John and More and then debuted his third symphony show, Singers and Songwriters: the Music of Paul Simon, Neil Diamond and James Taylor, in 2012. In 2015, he debuted his fourth symphony show, Rockin’ Christmas with the Pops.
Michael’s music has resonated with audiences worldwide, from his mesmerizing performances at renown events like the Super Bowl and Indianapolis 500 to his symphony orchestra collaborations. It will be surely an evening to remember!
