Michael McCloud

Michael McCloud (born 1947) is the stage name of Michael Snyder, an American folk singer and songwriter who regularly performed at the Schooner Wharf Bar in Key West, Florida for over 30 years. He gained national attention in 2006 after filing a formal complaint for copyright infringement against country music star Toby Keith, claiming that Keith's hit song 'I Love This Bar' copied his work 'Tourist Town Bar.' McCloud released several albums throughout his career, including Ain't Life Grand featuring the lead guitar playing of the late 'Doctor' George Turner. In 2023, he retired and relocated to Tucson, Arizona to be closer to his family.
