Michael's microphone well travelled
Published on 29 July, 2010
CQUniversity Music student Michael Scriha keeps his microphone close to hand in his satchel, ready for every opportunity to develop his performance experience and prepared to travel if necessary.
The keen vocalist started his studies in Mackay but followed his course when it became based in Rockhampton last year.
Now he's looking forward to performing with student band Groove Confederates as part of Rockhampton's ‘Big Night In 2', scheduled for 7.30pm on Friday August 6 at CQUniversity*.

Since starting his degree, Michael has performed widely across the region, from Hamilton Island to Rockhampton's riverside, including a Burlesque Ball, a Food and Wine Festival and at hotel shows.
In addition to his student band gigs, he performs with an acoustic duo and a rock band at hotels and restaurants around the Rockhampton region.
Meanwhile, he looks forward to learning from his industry mentor Kristin Berardi, one of Australia's leading jazz singers, who visits to work with Rockhampton students.
* The concert is supported by ABC Radio Capricornia.
