Michele Karmin
Michele Karmin is an alternative, soul singer/songwriter and electronic artist. She shifted musical directions in 2009 upon teaching herself piano and embarking on a new writing approach. This effort of re-discovery proved to be the missing piece of her evolving artistry as it catapulted her to a new height as an established songwriter and musician.
After independently releasing multiple cross-genre projects prior to 2009, she set the mark for the future of her sound with the debut of her first piano composition, "Six Years". The single garnered much attention for its haunting melody and soulful vocals which led Karmin to her first music video and signatureå sound. The track was shortly followed up by the recording and release of "I Need", a lounge style ballad with an ear-grabbing piano hook and emotive delivery. In 2010 Karmin teamed up with international DJ, Tom Colontonio and wrote "Colors of a Tear" which gained support by Armin Van Buuren and Judge Jules BBC Radio upon its release. Her sound has been compared to the iconic female artists Jewel and Tori Amos, yet her style of performance is uniquely her own, combining her early influences of alternative rock with an innate soul behind her voice.
"Let Me Introduce Myself.. Again" was released in 2012. The album pairs earthy textures with electronic elements amidst very thought-provoking lyrical content. Karmin notes that it's quite a re-introduction to her sound. "I have decided to embrace my alternative roots a bit more with the intention to deliver music that is authentic to who I am and without the constant speculation of what will or will not work in the music industry. I'm going with flow, not second guessing myself and just letting the music take me wherever it wants to go."
