Bret Michaels at the Niswonger Performing Arts Center

Description

Having had a career that has spanned over 30 years, multi-Platinum global superstar, Bret Michaels turned his passion for music into a multi-faceted brand that encompasses touring, reality TV, legendary songs, and product endorsements.
 
As the frontman of the rock band, Poison, Michaels helped define the rock-n-roll scene on the Sunset Strip. From hit songs including “Every Rose Has Its Thorn,” “Talk Dirty to Me” and “Look What the Cat Dragged In,” Bret’s equally successful solo career charted its own course with multiple solo albums, with Custom Built reaching No. 1 on Billboard’s Hard Rock list. Bret has produced and starred in record-breaking hit TV shows, was a Celebrity Apprentice winner, voted NBC Apprentice Fan Favorite, and the only winner to publicly launch a product from the show.
 
From raising awareness for Type 1 Diabetes, the disease he has lived with his entire life to supporting the military as the son of a veteran, Bret puts as much passion in his charitable outreaches as he does his music, garnering him the title of Humanitarian of the Year two years in a row.
