Michael Chapman (Hunslet, 24 gennaio 1941 – 10 settembre 2021) è stato un cantante, musicista, cantautore e chitarrista britannico[1][2][3][4]. Iniziò a suonare la chitarra con alcune band e gruppi jazz principalmente nella sua città natale di Leeds nella zona West Riding dello Yorkshire. Alla fine degli anni '60 divenne noto nei club folk e successivamente nella scena musicale "progressive", pubblicando nei sui oltre 50 anni di carriera[5] più di 50 album.
