Michele Van Kleef, a soulful, dynamic, classically-trained vocalist (formerly with the PNW's, popular, touring troubadours, Calobo), has released

Just A Seed (released in 2024, produced and mixed by Jim Walker) features 12 new original songs, drawing mostly from personal stories.

Front Porch (released in 2022, produced and mixed by Jim Walker) an EP featuring 6 favorite covers from Fleetwood Mac's Gold Dust Woman to
Gillian Welch's Look at Miss Ohio.

Your Own Way (released in 2016, produced by Tim Ellis) with stunning album performances by Tim Ellis (Craig Carothers, Brian Dunning), Mike Braun (Hall & Oates, Graham Parker), Troy Welstad (Pink, Hilary Duff), rock violinist Aaron Meyer, and Michele's former Calobo bandmate, Caleb Klauder.

After All (released in 2012, produced by Scott Schorr) featuring performances by legendary bassist, Tony Levin (Peter Gabriel), Nate Query (The Decemberists), and mixed by two-time Grammy winner, Tchad Blake (Sheryl Crow, Los Lobos).

Several tracks from After All were used as in-house music in Starbucks coffee houses worldwide!

Van Kleef has had her music placed in several films and tv shows. Her song "Willing" was featured globally in the film trailer for the Johnny Cash biopic, "Walk the Line".
