Michael James, aka MJ, is a gifted guitarist & musician, playing professionally for the last 38 years.  Michael began playing guitar at age 15, formally trained at Fullerton College as well as Musician's Institute in Hollywood.  He also studied privately for 5 years at Musonia School of Music, of Randy Rhoads fame, in North Hollywood, CA.  While playing the L.A. club circuit in the 80's & 90's, Michael became one of the most sought after guitar teachers in Southern California, often averaging over 70 students per week.  In 1994 a series of dramatic events forever changed his life & musical career, and for next last 28 years Michael has served as a full-time Worship Pastor.  In the early 2000’s he was the International Product Specialist for Line6, as well as being a demonstrator & performer at NAMM shows for decades.  Today, Michael continues to lead worship, privately tutor dozens of students, and work as a cue writer for several television shows.  In the midst of all his musical endeavors he still finds time to tour with the national rock act D'Molls.  Never knowing what God has planned around the corner, but always knowing that ALL things are possible, Michael continues to dream!  Phil. 4:6
