About Michael Rhodes
In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail.
I remember the first album I ever got. It was "The Writing's on the Wall" by Destiny's Child. I got it for Christmas when I was 7. I ran downstairs & put in in the CD player & I still remember the euphoric feeling I got hearing those songs.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular?
Aretha Franklin, Amazing Grace: The Complete Recordings (Live)
Beyoncé, RENAISSANCE
Florence + the Machine, How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful (Deluxe)
They capture so well a beautiful combination of vulnerability, truth, inspiration and musical skill that I always carry with me. "Amazing Grace" by Aretha Franklin is the album I would take to a desert island. I always return to all three with awe.

“Hold Me! Love Me!”
For me, this song marks the beginning of sharing my unvarnished truth. Taking my blood, guts and darkness and putting it into the microphone like I always say to myself. It was raw desperation for me & I am proud of myself for showing it completely.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far?
The most memorable moments haven't happened yet, but I am in pure joy now as if they have already happened. I'm so proud of myself for each step I have taken that leads me to the career I want. All the sacrifice and effort means something.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band?
Haha, there's SO much left. I have only just begun my career. One day I'll sing a duet with Ariana Grande, blow the roof off at The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon & be wild, free & at the top of my game playing the pyramid stage at Glastonbury.
