“I am always grateful and overwhelmed by the appreciation of an audience. However, this latest recognition, Crossover Artist of the Year, as well as several previous awards over the past two years, are most unusual as strangers I meet in everyday life approach me and congratulate me either. for the success of a song, or for the honor of a prize. It lights up my life! Ferrari told the Pahrump Valley Times.

Ferrari noted that he had played music and composed his own songs since he was a child, recalling that he spent many hours as a child standing in front of a mirror, guitar in hand and trying to emulate the king of rock and roll, Elvis himself.

“Music gave me the opportunity to meet people because I have performed all over the country. I discovered that there is never a stranger in the audience, ”he said. “By nature, we all need to be creative, to create something. It is our way of contributing to society and the world. The music should make you feel good and I hope that is the reaction of others to my music.

Do you know that feeling when your heart hurts and you feel like you can barely breathe? I wrote it after seeing a photo of myself and a friend from a long time ago and it hurt my heart to see it because we are no longer together as friends.

“My Heart Can’t Breathe” is slated for Tuesday August 10 and will be available on a variety of platforms including iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify, Reverbnation and more.

Ferrari made sure to shine the spotlight on the many others whose efforts helped make him the musical man he is today. “Musical success is a collaboration of many different directions,” said Ferrari. “I like my music producer Pepper Jay, as well as my radio promoter Paul Loggins, as well as Larry Beaird Music Group in Nashville where I recorded my last album as well as ‘My Heart Can’t Breathe’, and the fantastic musicians. from the studio who played on my tracks.

Ferrari encouraged those who love good music to check out their new single when it was released and noted: “I would appreciate fans asking their local radio station to play John Michael Ferrari’s ‘My Heart Can’t Breathe’ . “
