Kelly McMichael

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I was captivated by The Nutcracker by Tchaikovsky, particularly with the cartoon visuals that accompany the music in the first half of Disney's Fantasia. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Erykah Badu, New Amerykah, Pt. 2: Return of the Ankh Joni Mitchell, Court and Spark Liz Phair, Exile In Guyville 2018 Remaster Love Joni starting to get more jazzy and her lower, warmer voice. Erykah's Jazz and hip-hop is groovy as hell, with wise, heavy lyrics. Liz Phair is a refreshing unfiltered perspective, growling young women's woes with acute precision and defiance. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “All Over Again” The chorus is like a divine intervention, haunting with hard truths and soothing the deep wounds of a dying relationship. The Sheryl Crow-tinged vocal melody is supported with the warm and rich twang of pedal steel and 70s folk-rock production.
