Michael Dean Lockwood (born May 22, 1961) is an American guitarist and producer, a native of Hawthorne, best known for producing and performing with Lisa Marie Presley, Aimee Mann and Fiona Apple among others. Lockwood graduated from Highland High School in Bakersfield in 1979. He has worked with Carly Simon, Fiona Apple, Bijou Phillips, Alana Davis, Ben Taylor, Leona Naess, Susanna Hoffs and Michael Penn. In 1985 Michael Lockwood joined the already established but yet unsigned Hollywood group Lions & Ghosts. They were later signed to EMI America Records and recorded their first album in London. They disbanded in 1989 after a second record was released and several members had changed. He formed a local Power pop band Wink with Michael Marquesen, Tony Babylon, & Brian Keats. He married Lisa Marie Presley in a small ceremony in Kyoto, Japan on January 22, 2006.[1] Michael and Lisa Marie had fraternal twin girls via Caesarean section, weighing 5 pounds 2 ounces and 5 pounds 15 ounces respectively, at birth. The girls have been named Harper and Finley. The twins are the first children for Michael, and the third and fourth for Lisa Marie.[2][3] In June 2016, the couple filed for divorce.[4]

Michael Lockwood was the main guitarist for Lisa Marie's 'Storm & Grace' tour, that started on June 14, 2012.
