Michelle Willis is a Canadian singer, songwriter and keyboard player based in Brooklyn NY.
 She has toured, recorded, and/or performed with David Crosby, Laura Mvula, Michael McDonald, Iggy Pop, Snarky Puppy, Becca Stevens, and the Zac Brown Band. 
 Her inspirations range from Little Feat, Brahms, Paul Simon, Joni Mitchell, Donny Hathaway, Shawn Colvin, Jimmy Webb, and Regina Spektor. 
Michelle studied jazz and choral singing in Toronto, and soon began a career as a side-musician for bands like Parachute Club, Peter Katz and Royal Wood. With Don Rooke and Hugh Marsh, she formed Three Metre Day and released the album Coasting Notes (2011). In 2016, following the release of her debut full length album, See Us Through, Michelle moved to New York. 
 Her regular collaborations with funk fusion ensemble Snarky Puppy led to a recording session for the album Family Dinner Vol. 2. It was here she met David Crosby and Becca Stevens, whom alongside Michael League, soon became regular writing and touring bandmates. Lighthouse (produced by League), featured a track with the first collaboration of all four artists. Here If You Listen followed in 2018 with songs written by all. Another album is forthcoming. 
 Michelle’s newest solo release, Just One Voice (produced with Fab Dupont), is an ambitious studio record showcasing performances by Crosby, Michael McDonald, Grégoire Maret, Becca Stevens and Taylor Ashton. It is accompanied by a live and filmed concert of the same record.
