Michelle's Bio
Kairi (Trinidad)-born, Tkaronto settler, Michelle Walker is a proud descendant, mother and grandmother of artistic humans. A performing and recording artist and arts worker with four decades of experience, she's a regular face at parang shows around the GTA from November to January, and infrequently, as a member of David Rudder's Contra Band. Her weekdays are spent supporting artists as Toronto Arts Council's and Toronto Arts Foundation's Office Manager. Michelle is super excited to feature as a supporting vocalist on her daughter's recent release of womanist anthem I Am Wombxn, available on all platforms.
