Michelle Malone is a mainstay of American roots rock music, an underground legend in the fabric of Georgia Music. She has been called "a satellite member" of the Indigo Girls by Amy Ray, Been a member of The Kristian Bush Band (Sugarland), performed with the Atlanta Symphony with Gregg Allman and Chuck Leavell of the Rolling Stones, and forged a career that's taken the award-winning songwriter around the world on her own solo career which is celebrating 40 years as of 2026. She may be the only musician to have toured with both ZZ Top and Ellen Degeneres. Her musical roots run deep and wide like the mighty Mississippi river, twisting and turning through roadhouse rock, blues, folk, and alt-country territories throughout her 17 studio albums. Guitar World said Malone is “equal parts badass guitar slinger and sweet songstress, with masterful lyrical introspection.” Malone’s powerful live show will take you on a journey from dirty back roads of the deep slow south to frantic bright city lights. Her live shows are upbeat and authentic, engaging and satisfyingly soul stirring, flush with the raw energy and emotion that’s always been a part of her signature sound, which is why she is so revered. Malone's latest album, Southern Comfort, is a guitar-driven Southern Rock singer songwriter record cowritten in part with Dean Dillon of TN Whiskey fame, and features special guests Buddy Miller, Rick Richards (Georgia Satellites) Will Kimbrough (Emmylou Harris), Charlie Starr and Paul Jackson (Blackberry Smoke), and Randall Bramblett. American Songwriter says it’s "a wealth of alluring and enticing entries that ensure immediate accessibility and could be considered Malone’s masterpiece. 4/5 stars”, while Lee Valentine of The Atlanta Journal Constitution exclaims "One of my absolute top 5 albums of the year" MichelleMalone.com
