Michelle Crispin
Copywriter and Music Supervisor in Hermosa Beach, California
Michelle’s entire life has been immersed in music. Raised by audiophiles, she grew up an avid vinyl junkie, savoring everything from Coltrane to Zeppelin. An aptitude for classical piano landed her a full scholarship to Jacksonville University where she studied Music and Communications. After graduation, she packed up her keyboard & turntable (and her boxer, Louis Armstrong) and headed to LA to pursue a career in the music industry.
After touring the world with various bands, (including the notorious Fem 2 Fem) she settled down and created mediaHo publicity, a digital marketing company for musicians. She then shifted into music licensing & supervision, working at Opus 1 Music, Mighty Generation Music, and Songtradr. Her discerning musical ear has led to the successful placement of songs in hundreds of TV, commercial, film, and video game projects, including: Comet (Emmy Rossum, Justin Long), Grand Theft Auto, The Crew, Grey’s Anatomy, True Blood, The Gambler, Dexter, Private Practice, Breaking Bad, Californication, Sons of Anarchy, and many, many more. On her down time you can find her enjoying a sunset happy hour over scratch margaritas or walking her boxer, Buddy Guy, on the strand in Hermosa Beach.
