Michelle Chamuel
Michelle Chamuel, (from Amherst, Massachusetts) was the band vocalist and seventh joining member of My Dear Disco early on. She had been a classmate of the band founder Tyler Duncan, and had also recorded a track with band guitarist Robert "DJ Body-Rock" Lester. Her entry proved the turning point in the band's fortunes. The name change from My Dear Disco to Ella Riot came partly because she was a big fan of Ella Fitzgerald's music, thus the new name of the band. In 2013, Michelle Chamuel auditioned for the fourth season of the reality television show The Voice. In the third Blind Audition episode broadcast on NBC on April 1, 2013, she sang a cover of "I Kissed a Girl" from Katy Perry. Three of the four residing judges, Adam Levine, Shakira and Usher pressed their "I Want You" buttons and turned their chairs. She eventually chose to be part of Team Usher. On April 23, 2013 NBC announced that Michelle won the 'battle' round and proceeded to the 'knockout' round. On April 30, 2013 NBC aired the performance where Michelle won the 'knockout' round and proceeded to the 'live' round.
