His Italian grandfather paid for his singing lessons and negotiated gigs for him.

In 1997, he appeared on Canadian TV show Big Band Boom and in 2000, two of his self-written songs – “I've Never Been in Love Before” and “Dumb Ol' Heart” – were featured in the movie Here's to Life. Michael Bublé released his debut album, BaBalu, in 2001 and followed it up a year later with the album Dream. After he performed “Mack the Knife” at the wedding of former Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney's daughter Caroline, he met David Foster, who agreed to produce his self-titled debut album in 2003. Bublé's retro big band style hit a chord with audiences all over the world, while subsequent albums It's Time (2005) and Call Me Irresponsible (2007) broadened his style and proved he was much more than a Sinatra imitator.

His cover of “Cry Me a River” made it to Number 1 on the Billboard 200 and the album topped the Top Jazz Albums Chart.
