About MIchael Bell

Bio: Michael has had a long and varied musical career which began while in high school fronting cult success "Strobic Axe", a new wave/punk outfit that toured their independent LP long before the band was old enough to drink! After graduation Michael left the band and took to busking his way back and forth across Canada . It was during his time in Toronto Ontario he was discovered by guitarist/songwriter Andy Ryan and asked to front the popular club act "Trixie Goes Hollywood." Within the month the two moved on and with the help of producer Mark Caporal formed the pop rock band "Eye Eye." The act would go on to win the 1984 Q107 Homegrown Contest and be pursued by every major label in the country...

At the height of his career, Michael met the woman of his dreams and decided to leave the road to start a family, a business and a new life. Though he continued to perform occasionally, fronting a number of cover/tributes (ChangesAllBowie, Canuck, Broadband), he pursued his music online and in the recording studio. He was awarded a FACTOR New Talent Award in the 90's and found himself in the studio with producer Greg Wells (Celine Dion, Katy Perry, Elton John) Between the years of 2000-2005 he independently released 5 CD's as "NumberOneWorld", topped a number of internet charts with thousands of downloads, and mentored, promoted and recorded countless young performers and bands.

For the past 30 years, Michael has led a diverse and successful life. He is publisher of a number of magazines including "The Wire Megazine" one of Canada's longest running alternative regional tabloids. In 2003 he launched the (expired link), an online network of independently operated city business and event directories spanning the globe. As a journalist, he has been granted exclusive interviews with the likes of Gene Simmons to Ralph Nader. As a model, he has appeared in campaigns promoting everything from doctors to motorcycles to hot tubs. As an activist, he has twice been a Federal Green Party Candidate (2008, 2011) and continues to be politically active in his home town sitting and chairing a number of boards and committees aimed at social and environmental responsibility. As a family man, he remains married to that same special woman and celebrates the achievements of his two adult daughters.

Michael returned to the stage in 2014 singing the songs of Sinatra and Buble, his latest incarnation and is currently in the studio recording and arranging a new collection of standards and gathering industry interest and support. As NumberOneWorld a new album is slated for 2016.
