Michael Starks:
A veteran of the Tampa Bay music scene, gave up his day job working as a hydrogeologist/consultant to try a different approach to saving the world. His current band – Quaint Delusions – just released their third album in January 2025. The album – “Anything Real?” - follows the QD’s 2022 release “This Far Out” and their 2021 release “Basking In Irrelevance”. Starks has also released four solo albums over the years, the most recent being “Rolling Off The Edge” 2017. He will be joined on stage for a portion of his acoustic set by David Lane (also of Quaint Delusions fame) who will be deftly delivering his dulcet tones on lap steel.
