Michelle Branch
Biography
Just three years after Michelle Branch first picked up a guitar at the age of 14, she was signed to Maverick Records with an album in stores. Branch's debut, The Spirit Room, was produced by John Shanks (Melissa Etheridge, Chris Isaak) and issued in August 2001, spawning the leadoff hit single/video "Everywhere." Although she lists such classic rock acts as Led Zeppelin, the Beatles, and Jimi Hendrix as prime influences, Branch's music is more akin to such modern-day female artists as Lisa Loeb, Alanis Morissette, and Melissa Etheridge, something her more mature 2003 album Hotel Paper displayed. In 2005 it was announced that Branch had begun a project with Nashville singer/songwriter Jessica Harp. Originally dubbed the Homewreckers, the duo shortened their name to the Wreckers and released their debut album, Stand Still, Look Pretty, in 2006. ~ Greg Prato, All Music Guide

I love Michelle and I can't wait for her new album this summer! Goodbye to You is her best song.
|
||
Sounds alot like Morset's "You Ought to Know". Even though it don't soud to origianl, I like it a lot!
|
||
i actually think she's at her best in the album Wreckers. country jsut seems to be her style. she doesn't have to try as hard. though i do like the songs on Spirit Room and Hotel Paper better.
|
||
I think she might be making another solo album. You can see at her website www.michelle b a n c h . c o m . i just hope its not country...
|
||
I think she a more of a voice then she shows off, we get looks at it in songs like, Are You Happy Now?, Everywhere, and a few others. My friend had me listen to her a few years ago, and I was instantly hooked. I think if she tries hard, she can go a few places.

i just heard breathe for the first time and its really, really good i luv it actually im listening 2 it right now cuz i couldn't wait 2 write a reveiw...
|

I first listened to this song when I was 8 years old. I never liked it, because I couldn't understand what it was about. ( being an 8 year old, I couldn't understand why someone would say "are you happy now?") But now that I hear it again after all these years, I really do like it. She's a lot better than Kelly Clarkson.

Michelle, on your way to the top will you step on Britney's neck? Please?

Unusual voice, very real lyrics accompanying great guitar. How can you go wrong with that? She is one of my favorite artists--I especially love "Everywhere" , "Where Are You Now?", "Are You Happy Now?" and "Goodbye to You" as well as her duet with Sheryl Crow, "Love Me Like That". Where did she go??? Come back soon, Michelle! :-D
