1) MICHELLE is a fresh musical collective hailing from New York City. Weaving in and out of R&B, Pop, Jazz and Indie sounds, the group of six pays homage to these genres through 70s inspired basslines, driving drum beats, plush synths and enticing vocals.

I Love those J-I-N-G-L-E Bells
Those holiday J-I-N-G-L-E Bells
I love those J-I-N-G-L-E B-E-double L-S
I Love those J-I-N-G-L-E Bells
O'er the fields we go, laughing all the way,
Bells on bobtails ring, making spirits bright,
What fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song tonight, oh
Ch:
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh, hey,
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh.
A day or two ago I thought I'd take a ride
And soon Miss Fanny Bright Was seated by my side
The horse was lean and lank- Misfortune seemed his lot,
We ran into a drifted bank And there we got upsot. CH
Now the ground is white - go it while you're young
take the girls tonight and sing a sleighing song
Just get a bobtail nag - 244 his speed
hitch him to an open sleigh and CRACK, he'll take the lead CH
