1) Mike Marshall is an American mandolin player & multi-instrumentalist, who grew up in central Florida and now lives in Oakland, California. Marshall has been a part of new acoustic music since the early 1980s. He has performed and recorded with many musicians in a variety of styles, including bluegrass, classial, jazz and Brazilian music. In addition to several instruments within the mandolin family, Marshall also plays the guitar and violin.
Marshall has recorded and toured with other contemporary acoustic musicians such as David Grisman, Tony Rice, Mark O'Connor, Stéphane Grappelli, Darol Anger, Barbara Higbie, and Jerry Douglas. His two recordings on the Sony Classical label: Uncommon Ritual with banjo innovator Béla Fleck and bassist Edgar Meyer; and Short Trip Home with violinist Joshua Bell, mandolinist Sam Bush and Meyer were both on the Billboard Classical Music charts.[citation needed]
Marshall and his long time partner, Darol Anger, have released 6 albums as a duo on Compass and Windham Hill Records. Together they have also recorded with their experimental bluegrass group Psychograss with guitarist David Grier, banjo player Tony Trischka and bassist Todd Phillips.
From 1984 to 1988 Mike Marshall was part of the group Montreux, named for the Montreux Jazz Festival where they played a concert which was good enough to be released from Windham Hill, Live At Montreux - Darol Anger/Barbara Higbie Quintet. The group released two studio recordings, Sign Language and Let Them Say, before breaking up.
Marshall's strength in classical music led to his co-founding in 1986 of Modern Mandolin Quartet, a string quartet of mandolin family instruments. The group released four recordings for Windham Hill Records and in 1995, the Quartet made its Carnegie Hall debut.
Mike has worked with Chris Thile from the group Nickel Creek. Their CD Into the Cauldron, released in 2003 on Sugar Hill Records, was listed in the top ten of Amazon.com’s favorite recordings for 2003.[citation needed]

2) Michael Marshall (born October 6, 1965), also known and credited as Mike Marshall and Mike Meezy, is an American singer, songwriter and is the former lead singer of American R&B group Timex Social Club. As the band’s popularity crested, they struggled to complete Finally Over, the band’s only album. After numerous roadblocks, the album was released with minimal support and tour plans were aborted. Neither a failure nor a success, it remains a worthy testament to what could have been. Crestfallen and needing a new challenge, Michael seized on an opportunity to live and record in Nuremburg, Germany. In partnership with an expatriated American producer, his vocals charted regularly in Europe, with the highlight being his collaboration with rapper AK Swift on "Light in Me." The song made it into the Top 15 on the German charts and afforded Michael the luxury of doing some modest touring on the continent. As always, he was still advancing the platform that he helped originate. But after several years, it became apparent that he was chafing under the production qualities that European audiences demand. He needed to return home. He needed the familiar. He needed The Bay.
Upon returning, he hit the studio hard. Almost immediately, he settled into a solid working relationship with producer Nick Peace and his Million Dollar Dream label. He sang on "He Said She Said" with rapper Andre Nickatina, a song from the album Hell’s Kitchen. He also reunited with fellow Timex alumni, producers Denzil Foster and Thomas McElroy, to write and record songs for En Vogue’s comeback album, Sunflower. "All You See" and "How Do I Get Over You" featured his vocals and—despite the album’s middling sales figures—serve to remind listeners about one of Rhythm and Blues’ signature talents. Not all of Mike’s efforts during these first years back from Germany were widely received. But the volume of work that he amassed is significant. And so are the people he worked with.
The who’s who of Mike’s collaborations now stretches on and on, name checking half of The Bay Area and beyond. Keak da’ Sneak. San Quinn. Casual, from Hieroglyphics. E.A. Ski. E-40. Suga’ T. 3XKrazy. Rankin’ Scroo. Turf Talk. And then the work in Germany with Bootsy Collins. The set with Thelma Houston. The Weather Girls. Michael has been all over the R&B and hip-hop map, mixing and matching, innovating and re-creating.
But Michael’s latest reinvention would drop in 2004 and 2005. Now wielding the stage persona of "Mike Meezy", Marshall released two albums in less than a calendar year. First a collaborative effort with stellar San Francisco-based rapper Equipto, entitled "K.I.M. (Keep It Movin’)." Among the tracks on this album, "Da Beauty" (The Family)" and "Keep Rising" show him in top form, building sticky vocal hooks with dense harmonic choruses.
Now amidst the fog of the past Mike forges into the future with his latest body of work Love, Lies and Life on MDD/DeSantis. With Love, Lies and Life Mike is telling his story. This is the story of pleasure and pain, tragedy and triumph – his story. He sings that song that people know the words to, but do not know the author, the vocalist, the name – the soul, behind. Personal struggles, business beefs and everlasting challenges drive Mike to deliver a message that packages the truth of his life. This is the story of Mike Marshall – the brother whose name you need to know.
