Folk/Review Michellar - Reverie..From then till now
Michellar hails from the vibrant music scene of San Francisco, United States. She has been writing songs from the age of 15 and had a 40-year hiatus from the skill. Until recently, her songwriting craft has been ignited by a confidence-boosting acceptance to The de Young Museum Open Call Exhibition in 2023.
Michellar’s “Reverie..From then till now” is a deeply personal and evocative journey through the artist’s musical and emotional landscape. Drawing on early influences from folk icons like Peter, Paul and Mary, James Taylor, and Carole King, Michellar weaves a tapestry of sound that is both familiar and refreshingly intimate. After stepping away from music to focus on her landscape design career, this album marks her triumphant return to songwriting, capturing years of reflection, growth, and self-discovery.
Every track on “Reverie..From then till now” feels deliberate, a snapshot of Michellar’s journey toward empowerment and creative expression. Collaborating with Tobias Wilson, she crafts songs that are lyrically thoughtful and musically rich, blending folk sensibilities with subtle hints of Latin rhythms and contemporary stylings. The result is an album that balances introspection with warmth, inviting listeners to share in moments of quiet reflection, resilience, and hope.
This album is more than a collection of songs — it is a statement of perseverance and the joy of rediscovering one’s voice after years of silence. Michellar’s storytelling shines through every verse, offering both nostalgia and a fresh perspective on life’s winding paths. “Reverie..From then till now” stands as a milestone in her career, highlighting her evolution as an artist and reaffirming her place in the landscape of heartfelt, soulful music. For fans of authentic songwriting and emotive melodies, this album is an unforgettable listening experience.
