"Roy Abrams"

"A songwriter who has come into her own very quickly." - WBLI RADIO


"Ralph DiGianaro"

With a voice as sweet as summer rain and every bit as welcoming, Michele Monte is fast becoming one of Long Island's most prolific singer/songwriters. Her songs are personal diaries told in simple yet beguiling melodies that are refreshing in their honesty and originality. Easily one of the hardest working tunesmiths I know. - New York Times


"Long Island Entertainment"

It's in the ambiguity of her style and lyrics that make Michele so irresistible. Michele is in a league of her own and at the top of her game and a member of any suitable all-star team in my book. - Long Island Entertainment


"Good Times Magazine"

Michele Monte has one of the most beautiful singing voices to be heard anywhere on Long Island. - Good Times Magazine
