Michael Des Barres is a European Marquis, raised in England and living in Los Angeles. As the host of The Michael Des Barres Program on SiriusXM Radio Channel 21, he is heard by more than six million listeners, five days a week (5am-8am and 9pm-midnight PT). He has appeared in over 150 hours of American television and more than 40 feature films, and has sold over 7 million albums as both a recording artist and songwriter, beginning with his days as the front man for such seminal 1970s bands as Silverhead and Detective, a band personally signed by Jimmy Page to Led Zeppelin’s Swan Song records.

Michael Des Barres was also the touring singer for the Duran Duran spin-off group, The Power Station, performing at Live Aid with one of the most iconic live acts of the mid-1980s. From 1982 to 1984, Michael was a member of Chequered Past, which included Steve Jones from the Sex Pistols and Clem Burke and Nigel Harrison of Blondie. In 1983, Michael penned the song “Obsession”, which later became a number one hit in 27 countries for LA new wave group Animotion; the track continues to be featured in countless movies, television shows and commercials.

Being no stranger to down and dirty rock, Michael released several full length solo albums and singles.  His fifth solo album, "The Key to the Universe." was released in 2015. Not one to rest on his laurels, Michael followed up the album with a pair of raucous singles, "Living in the USA" (#2 in Little Steven's Underground Garage Coolest Song in the World for 2018) and "Gotta Serve Somebody" on Steven Van Zandt's label, Wicked Cool Records.

In 2018, Michael began his latest project, forming the LA rock band The Mistakes, whose entire ethos can be summed up as, "We play very loud and we make lots of mistakes." Michael continues to prove himself as one of the most charismatic front men in rock, selling out shows across Los Angeles, and the band currently has two singles on Wicked Cool Records, "Crackle & Hiss" and "Stop! in the Name of Love" both of which are currently in heavy rotation on SiriusXM. 2018 also saw Michael's return to the CBS TV show, MacGyver as Nicholas Helman, the mentor of Murdoc in his earlier years, who now has a deadly score to settle with him.
