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.

Dragon Fest music cancelled
Hey everyone,
We found out earlier this week that because of budget cuts, the Dragon Fest is no longer having music acts. Consequently, Michelle won't be performing next Saturday.
HOWEVER.... Sept. 18th Michelle will be playing at the Elbo Room (again, here in Chicago). So if you're around Chicago, going to be in Chicago, or would like to visit, put down Sept. 18th as a chance to see Michelle perform.
We're also waiting to hear back about some other potential gigs and we'll keep you posted about those too. Hope everyone is enjoying their summer!
