The first time I heard Michael Kosterman's voice I was blown away! Not only did I love the song, but that voice made me sit up and take notice...as good as, if not better, than the top artists we had been playing. I am proud to say that 88.7 KIK FM was the first radio station in the world to give his songs airplay. Michael Kosterman is a great songwriter and everybody that i know who has heard his voice says the same thing 'WOW!" Aleta Tulk - 88.7 KIK FM - Mareeba QLD Australia
Michael Kosterman's voice captured me the first time I heard it. His lyrics touched my soul. His style is like no other. His talent as a singer /songwriter is something I have never encountered before. His voice is so unique, and his lyrics come from his soul. There is no doubt that Michael will become another household name. Libby Danielowich Palmetto Entertainment. - South Carolina, USA
1. Do you write the songs yourself, and if not, how do you go about finding songs for your albums?
Answer: I write and sing my own songs. To this point I have never recorded a song written by anyone else. I consider song writing my greatest strength, and my biggest love. First and foremost, I am a songwriter.
2. What can your fans expect to see when they see you in concert?
Answer: When my fans see me in concert they can expect to hear the songs as they hear them in recordings. I don't believe in changing what it is they fell in love with. I put my heart and soul into every song I sing. They are my words, and I believe every one of them.
3. What did you do before you got into the music business?
Answer: I have done so many things in my past. I've been in the military. I've been a construction worker, an actor and even a truck driver. There's really too many to mention. I think that happens to a lot of artists who get forced to fit into society and get "real jobs", before they finally commit to the artist that they are, and are meant to be.
4. What's the best compliment a fan has ever given you?
Answer: A fan named Vickie in Cheboygan Michigan paid $1,500 in an auction for an old guitar and hat of mine. The fact that she put that much value on it, made me realise that people don't look at me as an ordinary guy anymore. Some, including Vickie, see me as a future star, and that is the biggest compliment a new artist can get.
