about

Michelle Koert is a songwriter and singer who’s enchanted music is a combination of electric poetry, sexy ballads, exotic melodies, and angelic rhythms. She was deeply moved to create a visionary album to re-energize a world of enchantment.

I hope that you will experience the labor of love that went into this album. Two years, twelve original songs, and endless hours in the recording studio. I have an incredible new appreciation for musicians and artists of all types. The music industry has changed so much, and many people have asked me “why even do an album?” – and my response simply is “because my heart told me to.”

Music was the primary form of communication before language. Music helped provide the social glue needed to create the first pre-human societies. Music is universal, and my deepest desire is to inspire all cultures with my songs to live and be the truest version of themselves. I believe that music has the power to evoke human evolution, and my purpose is to create music to do just that.

Each song tells a story, and the lyrics are a reflection of my personal journey of healing, growth, change, and being. Working in the IT industry for 20 years, my feminine essence went a little MIA. I even studied the Football for Dummies book just to fit into the boy’s club. I chose work over health, friends, and family. Through some deep inner work I found her again, and this album is a pure expression of that experience of laying down the masks to just be me.

My journey began at Esalen in Big Sur, California where I accidentally signed up for an advanced songwriting workshop. I was surrounded by professional writers and musicians from Ireland, Austria, Nashville, etc., so needless to say it was one of the most intimidating and challenging experiences of my life. My teacher felt that the universe put me there for a reason, and so I pushed my edge to play full out, and write and write and write.

There were so many inspirations for this album, but falling in love at the Enchanted Forest Festival resulted in the name of the album, and singing “Ecstasy” in honor of my beloved partner Scott at our Engagement Ceremony at Burning Man, was another truly priceless contribution.

My deepest gratitude goes to Tal Ariel, my masterful composer, who produced, engineered, and mixed the music. I am so thankful for his partnership and devotion in co-creating “Enchanted” with me. His patience was amazing, as I know that with my lack of industry knowledge I asked for things that just didn’t make sense. Regardless, he always found a way to capture my vision. A song is never truly finished, but when we would both be moved to tears, we knew it was ready.

Each song has been blessed with a little alchemy, so grab a cup of tea, light some candles, and cuddle up to my music for a night of listening pleasure.

Love, Michelle
