BASIC
Bruce Michael Paine
Actor
in California, United States
My career has spanned four decades. I started as a folksinger in Greenwich Village (NYC) in the 60's, playing many of the venues that were made famous by the likes of Bob Dylan, Tim Hardin, Odetta, Richie Havens, Joan Baez, on and on. Like Dylan, my music became "electrified" by the middle of the decade, and I signed with Atlantic Records. My group, Apple Pie, toured incessantly, opening for the immortal Jimi Hendrix, Cream (featuring Eric Clapton), and The Chambers Brothers, among oth... Moreers. I moved on to the world of theater as star of the San Francisco production of the Broadway hit Hair. Following my stint in Hair, I relocated to London where I was recruited as vocalist for the Polygram recording group, Steamhammer, later returning to the States to star in the stage production of Jesus Christ Superstar.
An avid Harley owner and longtime session vocalist, I've appeared in numerous films and television series, including a pilot for ABC, and a short-lived series co-starring with George Clooney. In the late 80's and early 90's, I was partners with the late actor Ray Sharkey in a rock nâ roll club called Radio Night Club & Lounge.
I recently put the finishing touches on my first literary effort, "The Rock n Roll Chronicles aka Almost Conscious" about a man who has shared the spotlight with some of the world's most legendary musicians.
Around Los Angeles, Iâve had several bands over the yearsâ¦The "THE BRUCE MICHAEL BAND", a Blues/Rock, R&B and Soul outfit, "IGUANA", a 12-piece Latin Jazz Fusion band, and several manifestations of my current band "CHEAP SUIT".
