The current lead singer for the Rewind Band performing hits from the 60’s – today.
Born and raised in Frederick, Maryland, Michele began her singing career in 1975 with a local Bluegrass band called The Marrakesh Express. Although Michele had never listened to Bluegrass prior to being with the group, she quickly learned how to sing the unique Bluegrass harmonies. This was her first opportunity to perform before large crowds and she soon realized entertaining was in her blood.
In 1979 Michele was asked to be the lead female vocalist for the very popular Top 40 Dance and Show band, “Damion and the Classics.” She was the first female in the group since its inception 20 years prior. Performing six nights a week, at least four sets a night, Michele gained a vast amount stage experience. Traveling up and down the East coast and performing for a wide range of audiences during the Disco craze was a great experience and Michele quickly learned the music business.
After leaving Damion and the Classics, Michele formed her own Top 40 Country band called “Full House.” Full House lived up to its name packing the house wherever they played. It wasn’t long until Michele and her band began opening up for major acts as they toured throughout the area. Some of the acts included: Conway Twitty, The Oak Ridge Boys, Kathy Mattea, Ronnie Milsap, Exile, George Jones, Saywer Brown, Patty Loveless and many more.
In the late 90’s, Michele began working with the management team of Terry and Brenda Cline in Nashville, Tennessee. One of Michele’s biggest thrills was showcasing her band at the Wild Horse Saloon in Nashville.
During the beginning of 2001, Michele once again found herself in a Top 40 Classic Rock band performing throughout the Maryland, Virginia, DC and Pennsylvania area. Since then she has continued to perform hits from the 60’s to current chart toppers with Rewind Band. Michele’s voice has often been compared to that of Patsy Cline, Barbara Streisand, Wynonna and Linda Ronstadt.
Michele is married to her husband of 25+ years Bob Small (who is also the band’s bass player) and has one son, Jeffrey.
