As we close out 2024, it’s wonderful to reflect on the milestones and moments of the past year. I’m so grateful for your continued support and enthusiasm for my music. Thank you so much for being a part of this journey.
A Year to Remember: Young At Heart
A major highlight of the past year was the release of my newest album, Young At Heart. This project was a labor of love, exploring the joys and wonders of youth through the perspectives of both children and parents. From Never Never Land and I Whistle a Happy Tune to Pure Imagination and Not While I’m Around, these songs are both simple and profound. I deeply appreciate your positive feedback and the way you’ve embraced these tracks.
Streaming Success and TikTok Magic
It’s been gratifying to see so many of my other songs continue to resonate with listeners. In particular, I’ve Got a Golden Ticket found an enthusiastic home on TikTok this year, picking up over 56,000 streams! While it’s incredible to know that my songs have now been streamed in nearly every country around the globe, to be honest I wasn’t expecting Indonesia to lead the way!
Concert Highlights from 2024
This year also brought wonderful opportunities to connect with audiences through live performances. I am so grateful to the Brighton Symphony Orchestra, Brockport Symphony Orchestra, Eastman Summer Studio Orchestra, and Greece Performing Arts Society for including me in their concerts. These moments on stage remind me why I love making music—it’s all about connection.
Wishing You Joy and Music in the New Year
As we all look ahead to a new year, I wish you and your loved ones a wonderful holiday season filled with warmth, happiness, and music. And thank you for sharing Michael DeLuca Music with friends who might enjoy listening.
I hope the year ahead brings you new adventures and opportunities, and many reasons to celebrate. Thank you for your kind support, and here’s to making more musical memories in the coming year!
