Grammy nominated and multiple Dove Award winning songwriter and producer Michael Farren migrated to Nashville from Texas 16 years ago after signing and subsequently releasing three albums on Word Records with his band Pocket Full Of Rocks. In 2012, after many years of touring, Michael shifted his focus to songwriting and production. Raised with a deep love for all kinds of music, Michael has penned hundreds of songs that span multiple genres. From Lauren Daigle's Grammy Nominated and now platinum single “Trust In You”, Reba McEntire’s Grammy winning album title track “Sing It Now”, to Christine D'Clario’s Dove Award winning Spanish album of the year “Eterno Live”, Michael has enjoyed diverse success.
His first commercial cut was the global worship anthem “Let It Rain”, which appeared on Michael W. Smith’s RIAA certified double platinum album “Worship”. Over the last 2 decades numerous artists have sung Michael’s songs including Natlie Grant, Mandisa, Blind Boys Of Alabama, Alisa Turner, Finding Favour, Unspoken, Phillips Craig And Dean, Big Daddy Weave, Aaron Shust, Karen Peck, Brian Free And Assurance, Darlene Zschech, and CityAlight.
When he’s not fishing or running around in the woods in his Jeep, you can find Michael living in Franklin, TN with his wife Alisa and two daughters Madison and Mykah.
