Michelle^UY

From Montevideo, Uruguay, Michelle is one of the newest additions to the roster of North American booking agency BlackTone. Her love for music matured during the years of MTV when she used to watch video clips by punk and alternative rock bands. This sparked the interest and curiosity to explore the study of electric guitar. Later, she graduated in architecture. During these times, she started attending South American parties that ignited a passion in her that helped her realize that making music was what she really wanted to do. After attending parties for some time, she began to get in touch with artists from the Uruguayan scene, especially with Muten.

She first debuted in 2018 on Milagro Records and on Nicolas Lutzʼs label, My Own Jupiter. She began performing her live sets at some local parties such as Reyes del Beat, Warehouse, Phonoteque, and up to Buenos Aires. She has also had the opportunity to play in Europe at the Phonoteque party at Hoppetosse in Berlin, RA:RE Anniversary in Paris, OPIA X SENTAKU X MOB in London and has been booked to play big festivals such as Houghton in London and Dimensions in Croatia. Deeply affected by the dancefloor which lies in front of her, she blends enigmatic dark sounds, acid basslines, and is always marked by a peculiar grace and groove.
