Booming voice of Cagle featured at Bootlegger

Saturday, March 25, 2006 | 7:15 a.m.

Michael Cagle, who has been doing some touring lately, will be the featured performer Sunday night at the Bootlegger's weekly showcase.

"I just came back from a little tour of the Pacific Northwest," said Cagle, known for his booming voice. "I have some dates coming up on the East Coast and in Florida, then I'm going back to fairs and music festivals."

The Las Vegas singer covers everything from Broadway musicals to pop and R&B. He says he recently was approached by a major record label to do the sound track for a movie to be released later this year.

And he hasn't given up on Broadway.

Cagle's Bootlegger performance begins at 9 p.m. It is preceded by a dinner.

"Basically it's a one-man show, but there are a couple of surprises," he said.
