Hey hey hey!
Great to get started
on a new year with new projects and great shows on the horizon! I am very excited
for what's to come this year in music and in life in general...
I continually feel so blessed to get to play music
with some of the greatest people in Portland on a regular basis. These people have been recently
deemed... wait for it....
Michele Van Kleef
Music Machine
featuring:
Michele Van Kleef:
lead vocals/acoustic guitar
Tim
Ellis: all things guitar and friendly banter, background vocals
Bill Athens: all things bass
Ken Ollis: drums
and percussion
The funny part of
this is that Bill and Ken know nothing about this new moniker, but will hopefully
be fine with it. It met happily with Tim's approval :}
