American singer-songwriter Michele Hendricks first appeared on stage at the age of eight with her father, Jon Hendricks, himself a singer, lyricist, and founder of the renowned vocal trio "Lambert, Hendricks & Ross." From the age of fifteen, Michele toured regularly in Europe with her father until she completed her dance and theater studies in London. She pursued further musical studies in San Francisco before returning to her native New York for two years, during which she worked with Buddy Rich and Stan Getz. Michele then returned to San Francisco to sing in Jon Hendricks' show "Evolution of the Blues," which ran for six years. She subsequently formed her own band, with which she toured the West Coast. She rejoined her father when he formed his new group, "Jon Hendricks & Co." They recorded the Grammy-nominated album "Love," for which Michele did the vocal arrangements. Michele eventually left the band to pursue a solo career, performing in the US, Europe, and Japan. She has also appeared on numerous television shows in the US and Europe.
