Michele Mercure

On 10 January 2019, Michele Mercure was a guest on RVNG Intl. Presents Friends & Fiends. Michele Mercure has been played over 60 times on NTS, first on 16 December 2016. Michele Mercure's music has been featured on 62 episodes.

In the early 80's with a background working as a cell animator and hailing from a mid-sized industrial town, Harrisburg, PA, Michele Mercure was embedded in the the town's visual arts community but suffered for lack of decent music - a familiar whinge from anyone who grew up outside of the big cities - so she made her own wickedly inventive and expressive sound using synths, effects, tape loops and vocals.

Her visual and musical worlds first gelled in a 1983 soundtrack for Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot, followed by three self-released cassettes which built on that aesthetic, creating a richly synaesthetic style of highly visual yet mostly minimalist music. Released a few years later, Eye Chant was the pinnacle of her output, which was revealed to the world at large, thirty years later via Freedom to Spend.
