"Michelle's energy is so contagious that whenever I watch her perform, I can't sleep for about four days. Nobody plays guitar like MB and her voice, well let's just say it's kinda...big. Michelle has a sound all her own and she makes audiences laugh, cry, and dance at will with her eclectic, high-energy performances. Count on seeing her at the top of the scene soon."
