MICAH WILLIS
Micah Willis has been immersed in music for as long as he can remember, and it shows in his electrifying performances. Hailing from Salt Lake City, Utah, Micah started out playing harmonica with his Grammy nominated father, Kenny Neal. At just eight years old, he joined a children’s choir which sparked his passion for performing. And soon after, he was selected to participate in an after-school music program that took him to iconic venues all across the country, including Carnegie Hall.
Now splitting his time between Salt Lake City and Los Angeles, Micah has carved out a name for himself as a dynamic singer, songwriter, musician, and actor. He’s shared the stage with big names like Juicy J, Kid Ink, Tyga, Trish Toledo, and Dirty Loops, showcasing his versatility and flair. Before graduating high school, he had already racked up four Downbeat Magazine awards, proving he’s a force to be reckoned with. He also made an appearance on the Disney Channel’s hit teen show Andi Mack. With influences ranging from Miguel, The Weeknd to Fleetwood Mac, Micah seamlessly blends pop, funk, and hip-hop, delivering high-energy performances that leave audiences wanting more.
Rejecting the notion that one-genre-fits-all and always up for a musical challenge, he recently stepped out of his comfort zone and traded his pop falsetto for a more soulful sounding blues influenced timbre. Most recently, he recorded “Devil’s in the Delta” with his father Kenny Neal, a collaboration resulting in a swamp blues track emblematic of the Delta region, where his father’s family hails from and still lives today. Micah is currently in the studio, recording a new EP that is slated for release in the coming months.
