Hailing originally from Charlottesville, VA, Michelle is a brilliant musician and shares both our classical background and our passion for multi-genred acoustic music. In addition to degrees in classical guitar from Oberlin Conservatory and Eastman School of Music, Michelle has been writing music and playing old-time, folk and bluegrass for years, and we cannot wait for you all to hear her play. Her ability on both banjo and guitar are something to be seen.
