Michaela

New York-born, Atlanta based next wave R&B/soul artist Michaela makes music to lift hearts and empower. An immersion in the gospel sounds of the church nurtured and developed her sonic palate from a young age. She transposes that same uplifting sense of community she grew up with into her own music, combining artistry with personal, meaningful, and powerful messages of identity and inclusivity. Michaela’s music is a multi-layered unpacking of her own identity, deconstructing the process of categorizing people, bodies, and ideas to discover self-love. The purpose of her art is to inspire, embrace and bring together communities, which she has fully embodied in performances at music festivals, charity events, and artist showcases.

Drawing inspiration from the likes of SZA and Summer Walker, Michaela continues to refine her unique sound and story through independent production. Her recent singles ‘Unavailable’ and ‘Tongue Tied’ bring a fusion of soul, R&B, hip-hop, and electronic sounds to contort the boundaries of neo-soul. Michaela’s upcoming EP ‘Cuffin Season’ rolls on from the Spring love story of ‘Tongue Tied’ into an exploration of winter relationships; a beautiful expression of seasonal love and its everchanging nature.
