About Michel Ebben Live 2013-2017 Michel has been playing live for over more than twenty years now. From small venues to main stages at festivals, mostly solo and other times with his band. Every show is unique; intense and witty, filled with stories, sometimes a joke or a response to what is happening in the moment in dialogue with the audience. But one thing you can be sure of, you never know what’s about to happen when going to one of Michel’s concerts. And every now and then the same question keeps coming up: “Is there a live album? Because I would love to hear more...” So here it is! Thirteen songs recorded during solo concerts at different venues throughout the Netherlands over the last five years. A collection including songs Michel seldom performs live, like Church, In Our Kingdom, (A song for) Fall & Darkness and a cover of the song made famous by Johnny Cash; Ring of Fire. Now you can enjoy one of Michel’s shows, right from your lazy chair. But if you can, visit one of his concerts. Nothing (no, not even this compilation) beats the real live experience...
