Michael Farren & Jon Kahn

About Michael Farren

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—and more recently, he's leaned heavily into country.

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 recent country cuts include songs recorded by Zach Williams, Lee Brice (featured on For KING + COUNTRY's "Checking In"), Abby Anderson, and Max McNown, and Emily Ann Roberts.

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.”

When he’s not fishing or running around in the woods in his Jeep, you can find Michael at his new restaurant and music venue in Columbia TN, Bourbon Gospel, with his wife Alisa and two daughters Madison and Mykah.
