Michelle grew up in a musical family. Her grandfather played mandolin and lap steel guitar. Her father played fiddle, guitar, and mandolin. She was born in Arkansas and raised in Texas. She started out singing at church fairs, and festivals with her first performance at five years old. She received a paddling in the first grade for singing “Don’t Come Home A Drinking With Lovin’ On Your Mind” in her music class. Michelle grew up with a love for the fiddle and artists like Patty Loveless, Ricky Scaggs, and The Whites. Her husband/producer asked her to sing some demos of some bluegrass songs he had written and the rest is history. We now affectionately call her “Bluegrass Baby.”
