Profile Bio Text

Michael Bolton (born February 26, 1953) is an American singer-songwriter and a former hard rock singer. He is best known for his soft rock ballads and tenor vocals. His achievements include selling many albums, eight top ten albums, two number one singles on the Billboard charts, and awards from both the American Music Awards and Grammy Awards. Bolton`s hard rock band, Blackjack, once toured with heavy metal singer Ozzy Osbourne. He began recording as Michael Bolotin in 1975. He gained his first major hit as a songwriter, co-writing "How Am I Supposed to Live Without You" for Laura Branigan, previously best-known for singing the disco-pop classic "Gloria". Narrowly missing the Top 10 on the U.S. pop chart, Branigan took the song to number one on the Adult Contemporary chart for three weeks in 1983. The two sought to work with each other again, and their next collaboration was when Bolton co-wrote "I Found Someone" for Branigan in 1985. Her version was only a minor hit, but two years later, Cher resurrected the song, and with it her own singing career. Bolton co-wrote several other songs for both singers. Bolton would achieve his greatest success in the late eighties and early nineties as a singer in the adult contemporary/easy listening genre. One of his first major hits was his 1987 interpretation of the Otis Redding classic, "(Sittin` On) the Dock of the Bay". Always interested in soul and Motown classics, Bolton`s success with that song encouraged him to tackle the standard "Georgia On My Mind," with which he had another hit. In 1991, Bolton released the album "Time, Love & Tenderness", which featured his Grammy award winning cover of "When a Man Loves a Woman". Most of Bolton`s recordings are original material;, however, he has also written songs for such artists as Conway Twitty,Barbra Streisand, Kiss, Kenny Rogers, Kenny G, Peabo Bryson and Patti LaBelle. Michael Bolton was born to a Jewish family in New Haven, Connecticut. He is the father of three children. Bolton became engaged to actress Nicollette Sheridan in March 2006; however, it was confirmed on August 26, 2008 that they had broken off their engagement.
