Bio

Michelle Spriggs is a kiwi Import...(another one)but has made Australia home and settling in WA.
After completing her bachelor of music majoring in jazz vocals she took to Australia to try and pay off the student loan driving trucks in the mines. Being a musician with a way too active mind and a way too active social life Spriggs didn’t last long and ended up on the couch of a mate in Margaret River WA.
Five years later Michelle is fronting her own band ‘Frankly’ with a mix of original Funk/Reggae/Rock tunes and it seems to be a sound people want to hear more of. Recently her and band ‘Frankly’ won a band competition to open for Gyroscope and Cog at Margaret River Mass.
With a big jazz background it would surprise most people to hear her live show creep up and up as the night progresses and ends up to be on the verge of a rock show .In saying this, vocal scat is one of her favourite ways of improvising and she incorporates this old time jazz form in a majority of her tunes. This new and unique sound is making her and her band ‘Frankly’ more and more popular with every gig. Spriggs is in the middle of recording her first album with Sonic Lolly Productions in Margaret River and is set to tour Australia and New Zealand as soon as it is complete.
Influences include Bjork, India Arie, Portise Head, Jill Scott, Sarah Blasko, Blue King Brown
