Michelle Leona,

About Me

Michelle Leona tells stories from behind her accordion about what it's like to be a somewhat slutty, almost always drunken, angry blind chick in NYC. She usually wraps things up with a song expressing our baser passions. She is a doctor now and is currently exploiting the elite degree by hosting a monthly variety show called the doctor michelle party show, where songwriters & poets share equal stage time with comedians and storytellers. Leona is also a regular feature in john Murdock's God Tastes Like Chicken and Leslie Goshko's Sideshow Goshko. She nurses megalomaniacal fantasies about wanting to rule the world.
