Michael Franti may be one of the most positive people on the planet, and this week he’s our guest on the Live From Studio M Hour.
He rocked our Triple M Block Party at the Sylvee in 2019, and has played for us a few times in Studio M. For some reason, it’s impossible not to smile while listening to Michael Franti & Spearhead.
Here are some things you may not know about Michael:
He’s really tall. And yes, he used to play basketball. He attended the University of San Francisco on a full basketball scholarship.
He was in an industrial punk band called The Beatnigs.
He played guitar in the streets of war-torn Baghdad.
He doesn’t like wearing shoes.
