Michelle Shocked ROCCUPY!!
"An immensely likable artist, one whose music combines biting wit, sharp social commentary and a strong sense of Texas roots." Chicago Sun Times
Between the widening gap of ultra-rich and working pooror, for that matter, uber-celebrities and starving artistsstands Michelle Shocked, a thriving, independent singer-songwriter from east Texas. As a young feminist, she left her home state to travel, Kerouac-style, and was caught up in Reagan-era grassroots politics. Her musical career was ignited by a bootleg recording made around a Kerrville Folk Festival campfire on a Sony Walkman. Released in England as 'The Texas Campfire Tapes' without Shocked's authority, its success abroad enticed Mercury Records to offer the newcomer a recording contract. Ever since she's been a traveler, troubadour, and very popular "picker-poet," as they say in Texas. In her own words, she's "the most sophisticated hillbilly you'll ever meet."
