Michael Woods

Michael Woods is one of the UK’s most popular producers having remixed everyone from Ian Van Dahl & Sonique to Iio & Energy 52. Having already scored two chart hits under his production name Warrior, Michael now plans to emerge from the shadows of the underground dance scene and the recent video shoot for “If U Want Me” featuring the vocals of Imogen Bailey provided him with a first taste of pop success. Michael’s musicality stems from his ability as a pianist – both he and his sister (singer Marcella Woods) were taught piano by their father and got up to grade eight.
