Michelle Shocked Threesome

.
(press release) 2005 will be a big year for Michelle Shocked, who will release a new trilogy of
albums on June 7th on her own Mighty Sound label through Proper Distribution in
the UK. The two-time Grammy nominee will present her "Threesome", continuing
the "American Trilogy" concept of her first three Mercury albums.
The first album "Don't Ask Don't Tell" is a rock album produced by Dusty
Wakeman. The second album "Got No Strings" features Disney classics done
in a Western style swing. The third album, "Mexican Standoff" is half-Latin,
half blues.All three albums will be released separately, and also together as a limited
edition box set. The simultaneous releases chronicle a tumultuous time of life
-- including her recent divorce. This isn't to imply that the songs are bitter.
In fact, to the contrary they're executed with humour, imagination, irony and
empowerment -- and in voices most have never heard from Michelle. There's rock
and after-hours blues, hardcore punk and twang shading her sly lyrics.
Michelle will be undertaking a major UK and Europe in July. Full tour
dates will be announced shortly.
