Check out "Tomorrow" and "Something Better" which you can hear on tonight's episode..tuesday 7/13/10 at 10/9c pm on MTV.

If that wasn't enough of a great music week - you can also catch my song "good life" on the show "Degrassi - the next generation" on friday 7/16/10 on TeenNick. The song has also made it onto the soundtrack for the "Degrassi Takes Manhattan: The heat is on" movie. And you can find the soundtrack on www.amazon.com as of today!!

I'm starting up another bunch of writing sessions to provide new music and working hard this summer to stay focused on at least putting out another ep as early as the fall. I'll be hitting san francisco for a possible gig and enjoying being a p;art of the San Francisco International shorts film festival sep 9-11th. My music video for the song "10 stories down" has been accepted as one of the submissions. If you haven't seen it, or purchased it(ahem thank you if you have!!) you can now check it out on youtube!]]> http://michellefeatherstone.com/news.html#19 Tue, 13 Jul 2010 00:00:00 -0700 Musician - Michelle Featherstone - News http://michellefeatherstone.com/news.html#18 This song is close to my heart, because I wrote it whilst living in Hollywood several years ago. I dug it out a year or two ago and had it produced by Rick Parker, who I have used frequently for my album production over the years.
Although I lived on 'wilcox and yucca' streets in Hollywood, there's not an awful lot you can rhyme with either of those..and set my sights on the intersection a block and a half away from where i lived. So many different characters pass through those streets, it wasn't difficult to find a few of them to write about..and I hope they come up in stories and songs of mine, years from now!
It may not be available as a download, but I will offer the song a few places for you to check out and hope it keeps you checking back here for more updates on new music and new tours.

I signed with a booking agent in philly, who will hopefully get me a small tour on the east coast come fall, and will be headed back to the UK inevitably to play some dates and do some more writing very soon.

If you miss the show, check it out on hulu or on the Lifetime tv website and maybe you'll be able to hear a little of my hollywood experience song!!]]> http://michellefeatherstone.com/news.html#18 Sun, 27 Jun 2010 00:00:00 -0700 Musician - Michelle Featherstone - News http://michellefeatherstone.com/news.html#17
Another fun project Michelle has been involved in, is writing songs with American idol contestant Matt Giraud. Matt and Michelle have written 3 songs together now and continue to write when he is back in LA.

Amongst the various other songwriters and musicians michelle works with, she recently had 2 songs on an album with french artist Nolwenn leroy. 'Mademoiselle de la gamelle' a song with she wrote with Nolwenn and 'Me and You' a song written with Jonatha Brooke, both are featured on Nolwenn's record. The album was Number 1 on Itunes and has remained on the itunes charts in france for several months. The album was produced by producer and artist Teitur. Michelle recently worked with teitur on a song for his record, which he is currently working on in Copenhagen.

Michelle's recent trip to europe found her writing with Pete Glenister(alison Moyet) and in france, she cowrote with Franck Pire and Tina harris.

After completing the "Blue Bike" record last year, michelle played residency's in LA with her full band, as well as a broken down set with guitar player Meg Toohey(The Weepies) Meg and Michelle will be writing songs for an upcoming release this summer.

In a rather drastic departure from her normal style, michelle also started a new band...The 80's sounding synth pop band aptly named "The Awesomeness" consists of Michelle and writing partner Jim McGorman. Writing started as a project mainly for film and TV, but the duo quickly realized they were onto something bigger....shortly after that, wigs and spandex abound Jim and Michelle enlisted the help of fellow musicians Steve Fekete, and Steve Ferlazzo to complete the band. The new cd "inside your head" can be found on Itunes and the band has booked several shows in LA and is planning a tour on the east coast in late June.
