Pollstar | Michael Stanley 1948 - 2021: An Appreciation

No matter how tough things got, MSB created music that swept sometimes tens of thousands of locals up in its expansive view of life in “Our Town.”

Locals recall Michael Stanley as gracious, loyal | News, Sports, Jobs

Michael Stanley, whose music has been the soundtrack for decades for so many in the Mahoning Valley, died Friday at age 72. As a solo artist and as leader of the Michael Stanley Band, the Ghost Poets, Michael Stanley & the Resonators and the Midlife Chryslers, the man born Michael Stanley Gee was a Cleveland hometown hero, where he had successful careers as a DJ (30 years at WNCX-FM) and television host (“PM Magazine”) in addition to his work as a recording artist and performer. But the Michael Stanley Band always had strong roots in the Mahoning Valley as well. Three band members are Youngstown natives — bass players Daniel Pecchio (1974-79) and Michael Gismondi (1979-87) and guitar player Gary Markasky (1978-83). Road manager Jimmy Soffos is a Warren native and Dan Montecalvo, who still lives in Warren, was sound man for Stanley’s musical projects from 1976 until the Resonators’ last gig before the COVID-19 pandemic.
