Michele Mercure

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
