taLL PINE TRACE
Authentic Country & Folk Stories
Est. 2026 — Zürich, Switzerland
Welcome to Tall Pine Trace.This is more than music—it’s my life turned into sound. Every song is born from deep personal experiences: the profound love for those in my life, and the raw ache of heartbreak. When life gets heavy and the heart feels empty, these stories become my sanctuary.Rooted in the soul of Country and Folk, I explore the quiet moments of longing, the weight of loss, and the unbreakable bonds that define us. My music is for the seekers and the dreamers who understand both the darkness of loneliness and the glow of hope.Join me on this journey through the shadows and the light.
Yours in music, Michael
