Micachu & The Shapes

Rough Trade Records are delighted to announce the signing of 21 year old Mica Levi AKA Micachu. Her debut album ‘Jewellery’ is released on Rough Trade Records on March 9th.
So, a quick introduction, Bjork is said to be a fan of Micachu and can probably identify with another artist brave enough to take pop music into entirely uncharted territory. Micachu is largely inspired by Harry Partch who famously used an array of customized and home made instruments.
