Michelle Shocked
Acclaimed singer/songwriter generating compelling lyrics and mneumonic melodies for over 40 years, Shocked was thrust into an inadvertent recording career in the ’80’s by a bootleg tape published in England. In the ensuing bidding war following the phenomena of The Texas Campfire tapes, and standing her ground, she retained ownership of both recording masters and song copyrights, in a remarkable negotiation with Universal. A trilogy of Grammy-nominated albums, the Mercury Trilogy, was released over the next five years, launched by her signature song, “Anchorage.”

Surviving a 13 year blacklist, activist & musician Michelle Shocked has emerged with the release of her audio memoir, Bootleg This!: Truth vs Reality v2.0. Forty years after her legendary bootleg debut, the Grammy winner returns with a vengeance.

Roadworks 2026 presents two girl geniuses in one evening; this is a co-bill.

Following Michelle’s 60 min concert performance is a 30 min solo drama of Krapp’s Last Tape by the divine Cintra Wilson!

Experience this rare & intimate evening.
