Michele Bettencourt is a singer/songwriter who found her own voice in 2018. She grew up as an only child in a lower middle-class household in northern California. Michele’s love of music was fostered by her mother who kept their home filled with sounds of Janis Joplin, Neil Young, Crosby Stills and Nash, Carol King and others whose music echoed with resonant the defiance against the Vietnam War and racial atrocities that shook America in the 1960’s and early 1970’s. Earlier in her music journey Michele joined forces with Hendrik Helmer, an accomplished guitarist in New York City and her dreams of becoming a writer re-emerged. With the help of exceptional musicians that included Mike Visceglia and Tommy Mandel, they recorded New Normal, an album that, while never marketed or distributed, is as timely now as it was then. Her lyrics and their melodies speak honestly about the cruelty of politics and the shame of failure and even the grace of redemption. Her upcoming album, Vampire Time, features guest performances by Carmine Rojas, Conrad Korsch, Steve Ferrone, Shawn Pelton, Russ McKinnon, Andrew Synowiec and many notable others. Kerry Brown who runs the legendary Licorice Pizza is producer and executive in charge and is releasing the album through his Licorice Pizza record label. With the release of her debut single “Everybody Loves A Circus” (Licorice Pizza) we can honestly say that it’s Michele Bettencourt’s time to be heard and she has a lot to say. The music speaks for itself.

Christian hip-hop pioneer DPB (David Paul Brooks) has returned with a fiery and timely new single, “American Strong” across all major streaming platforms. Known for his high-energy performances and faith-fueled message, DPB delivers a power-packed anthem of unity, resilience, and divine purpose just in time for Memorial Day and the upcoming Independence Day season. “American Strong” is the follow-up to his #1 radio airplay single, “Peer Pressure.” Rooted in the foundational belief that God created this great nation and each of us in His image, “American Strong” is more than a songit’s a rallying cry. With its infectious beat and stirring lyrics, the track calls Americans of every race, background, and belief to come together, honor those who sacrificed for freedom, and embrace the love and strength that can only be found in unity.
“We wrote this song just become as one cause we’re American strong,” DPB proclaims in the chorus, weaving scripture-inspired messages with modern-day urgency. The single speaks to a nation grappling with division, encouraging listeners to reject judgment, embrace compassion, and remember the blessings of liberty that so many have fought and died to preserve. Through DPB’s trademark blend of rhythmic urgency and spiritual uplift, “American Strong” is a bold step forward for a voice already synonymous with purpose-driven music.
