BACKS TURNED' IS MY FAVE - What's Yours ?

About Me

INDUSTRY REVIEWS:
“Recently I was introduced to Michelle through a client of mine. I previewed some of her material on her myspace site and was very impressed with her unique sounding, very powerful voice. While I believe her songwriting will continue to develop, I feel she’s got a voice unlike many in the industry. This combined with the right team surrounding her, could lead to a lot of mainstream potential.”
Bill Banham –
President of B2 Management and Representation
(Former President of Virgin Records, Canada)
~
"A Unique & mesmerizing voice.
She engulfs the audience with every word."
Chris Taylor –
General Manager & Booking Agent of Grace O’Malley’s, Toronto
BIO:
Michelle C Ursini is a 24 year old Toronto born singer/songwriter. Her diverse range and style allows her to put her own flare on covers and brings something fresh to the table with her originals. Michelle can be compared to such famous vocalists as Stevie Nicks, Norah Jones, Avril Lavigne, Sheryl Crow, Heart, Melissa Ethridge, Sinead O’Conner, Amy Lee from Evanescence, Jessica Simpson and at times even Janis Joplin!
Down to earth by nature, Michelle has the Girl Next Door charm off stage and the rock star presence on stage.
She has performed in different languages, on television, in local Toronto pubs , contests and music festivals! She’s actively writing new music to break into Toronto’s music scene further...
Be sure to check out her samples & postings for new gigs!
