The Story
“So a priest walks into a bar and pulls out a guitar…” Sound like the beginning of a joke? The funny thing is - a few years back, this could’ve described an evening in Michael Tiernan’s life.

Just a year away from being ordained, Tiernan left that calling for a higher one: his life-long love of music. Today, he’s one of the West Coast’s hottest songwriters, and his rise in the national singer/songwriter scene is the blossoming of an amazing story.
