Michelle Lockey on Living On Music

“My music can range from dark to happy, from Indie to singer-songwriter to straight-up pop, it just depends on what is happening in my life at the time...I usually gear toward the darker side, because it helps me process my feelings and emotions and I hope helps others too, but I do like to write some heartwarming songs as well, and sometimes some extremely happy upbeat songs!”A lifetime resident of Maryland and Virginia, in 2009 Michelle Lockey joined Taxi Music and learned about the world of pitching songs to Film & TV, and a whole new world opened up for her. She has gone on to release 6 albums and many singles, two of which were released by Black Toast Records, and her high profile TV placements continue to rack up on shows such as Amazon Prime's Good Girls Revolt, Young Sheldon First Look Trailer, The Voice, The CW's Reign & The Originals, USA’s Benched & No Tomorrow, The Fosters, Inside the PGA, Longmire, and she landed the theme song to MAVTv’s Gear Heads. In 2014, she was nominated for two Wammies (Washington Area Music Awards) and has wracked up many more awards. Her other significant goal, was putting together a workshop on understanding Music Licensing, since then it has morphed into Licensing Songs Academy. The Academy now has roughly 200 students who are learning about music licensing & are part of the supportive community of the Academy.Join Living On Music on Facebook at facebook.com/groups/livingonmusic and on YouTube at youtube.com/@livingonmusicwithstevehouk.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/living-on-music-with-steve-houk--5376946/support.
