Michelle Cross

Biography

Michelle Cross is obsessed with her music. "I [play and write music] all the time. When I don't have a job I'm playing 14 hours a day. When I do have a job I play 4 or 5 hours a day. I have to do it everyday… as much as I can squeeze in." She describes her songs as therapeutic and very personal. "It's like my journal" although she admits she likes to "steal shoes" a lot.

Sprinkled with classical influences and firmly supported by strong vocals, Cross's songs tend to have a darker moodier feel to them. At times, there is a lot of aggression and rhythm in her piano playing, yet even at its most gentle moments her powerfully emotional and melodic piano-based songs have caused listeners to sit-up and pay attention."

I'm just trying this thing out. Hello... are you out there? Matty Poo? 
This is very strange. Words are really at my fingertips - it's like magic. I must be careful what I say. I have a horrible habit of speaking before thinking. But I'm really here to try out this new thing - this thing that lets me write you guys - thanks again to Mz. Brianna. And thanks to all of you who have been stopping by from time to time. It's really so kind of you.

I've got'ta run for now, but I shall be back. I've got'ta see if this thing is working for real. It's like stepping back and seeing if a picture is hanging straight or crooked. Needless to say, computers aren't my thang. I wish it were - I'd feel so free, I think. Now will you imagine I'm wearing a cape and I disappear in a poof of smoke?

Until Very Soon -

Michelle
