About Demi
Heartfelt, charismatic, and authentic are three words used to describe Demi Michelle’s music.
The Pittsburgh-based pop and country songwriter turns her life experiences into songs that
touch the hearts of her listeners through captivating storytelling in her lyrics and memorable
melodies. She greatly looks up to Julia Michaels, Kelsea Ballerini, and Taylor Swift, three
incredible songwriters who share their stories in raw and truthful ways. Demi strives to remain
honest and authentic as a songwriter in her own music and during her collaborations with
others.
Demi pieced together her songwriting passion over the years. Her musicianship shines through,
being a classically-trained pianist and knowledgeable about music theory. Also being a creative
writer with an MFA in Writing Popular Fiction, Demi is always finding ways to blend her musical
talent and storytelling in powerful ways.
Demi kicked off her songwriting journey in 2019. After releasing several singles, she delivered
her debut album, Dear Diary, on October 15, 2021. This eleven-track album, which includes
Demi’s popular single, “Will I Ever,” truly gives listeners a glimpse into Demi’s heart and story.
The songs capture honesty and vulnerability, much like diary entries do. Demi wrote this album
for herself to explore her thoughts, feelings, and insecurities. Through writing Dear Diary, she
has gone on a journey of self-discovery.
On January 28, 2022, Demi was invited onto her hometown station, 100.7 STAR Pittsburgh, to
be the first artist on the morning show’s new segment, Bubba Show Live and Local Music
Spotlight. Along with an interview, “Will I Ever” aired during the show, making it Demi’s first play
on top 40 radio.
Demi’s debut chapter earned her two nominations at the 8th Annual Josie Music Awards, which
she attended at the Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville. She received nominations for Pop
Artist of the Year and Pop Album of the Year for Dear Diary.
After a life changing debut chapter, Demi shared her five-track EP, It Is What It Is, on November
11. This project shimmers with self-empowerment and showcases Demi’s songwriting talent and
passion for blending genres in her music. It gives a glimpse into what listeners can expect in the
future, as Demi continues to write about meaningful and universal topics that are rooted in her
personal experiences.
