media release: NYC-based collective MICHELLE is at High Noon Saloon on Friday 9/9 - they’re coming through Madison on their headlining “Lavender Tour” next month, following summer festival stops at Outside Lands, LA’s This Ain’t No Picnic & Seattle’s Capitol Hill Block Party.
“DREAMS is the collective main-character moment for the alt-pop group, whether clearing out for a solo dancefloor moment on ‘POSE’… or counting down to a sexy apocalypse on ‘END OF THE WORLD.’ Even on the songs that call out for extra company, the outfit sounds totally in control — not easily shocked and dominating the crosswalk.” - Billboard – 10 Best Pride Albums of 2022
"the kind of breezy, timeline-cleansing tunes our overstimulated brains are begging for right now" - Entertainment Weekly – 9 Artists to Watch in 2022
"the collective’s contagious charm and versatile creative approach is worth our attention" - Pigeons & Planes – Best New & Rising Artists to Watch in 2022
“AFTER DINNER WE TALK DREAMS is going to usher in an entirely new era of MICHELLE, emphasizing their creative maturity and growth as a collective” - V Magazine
"plush R&B pop that feels wholly indebted to the flexuous city that surrounds them" - The FADER
“MICHELLE are like a party that everyone’s invited to… lovable, genre-bending music… infused with inspiration from a plethora of music genres, but they all blend to create a cohesive vision. There’s crooning, dance-worthy tracks, euphoric R&B melodies, and sucker-punching lyrics that evoke an almost guttural shout from Gen Z” - ELLE
Born-and-bred New Yorkers, MICHELLE formed in 2018 and is comprised of Sofia D'Angelo, Julian Kaufman, Charlie Kilgore, Layla Ku, Emma Lee and Jamee Lockard. The predominantly POC and queer collective mix and match the writing and production groups amongst the six of them. Their debut album HEATWAVE was self-released, featuring stand-out single “THE BOTTOM.”
