Michelle Blades first appeared in Phoenix seemingly out of dry air at an open mic and proceeded to blow everyone's minds by improvising a melodious song with simple strums on her uke. Since then, she has played at countless local venues, toured Europe and recorded three albums under the River Jones label.  We all can consider ourselves lucky to witness the evolution of such an amazing musician into a tremendous performer, without losing a ounce of sincerity and modesty.
