Michaelan Stanley



“Music has always been my first language.”
Michaelan Stanley is a Oneida Tennessee native, the daughter of Heather Stanley and granddaughter of Barbara Lockhart the both of whom she contributes her love of music too.
Growing up terribly shy and quiet, Michaelan took a leap out of her comfort zone when she got the Lead role of Audrey in Little Shop of Horrors at 14 at her local High School and since then has been chasing the thrill of an applause. Theatre and the Appalachian Society of the Arts has brought her so many opportunities that she is endlessly grateful for, the moments of joy that have been brought to her family because of it will never be forgotten.
Following the the path of her Mother as a singer and father as a guitarist, Michaelan hopes to make a career out of her talents and is eagerly awaiting what the future holds.
