The Beauty of British Song: Mica Paris

From London, a touch of Paris. :-)


Mica Paris (born Michelle Wallen) came out of South London at the age of nineteen at the end of the 1980s and established herself as Britain's hottest new soul singer. Although that sounds like being the most promising concert pianist in Fargo, Mica Paris backed up the boast with her 1989 album So Good, which produced the single "My One Temptation." That song received massive radio play in the U.S.

Subsequent albums have included Contribution and Whisper a Prayer, along with singles such as "South Of The River" and "I Wanna Hold On To You."

Paris records infrequently, having produced six albums in a span of twenty years. Born Again, her sixth LP, was released in June 2009.
