The Blow Tickets

The Blow is the performance alias of Mikhaela Yvonne Maricich, born in Portland, Oregon and presently a New York-based musician. The Blow has gone by the previous names of "Get the Hell Out of the Way of the Volcano" and "Get the Hell Out of the Way of the Wave," reflecting her Pacific Northwest roots. She is formerly of The Microphones.

The style is a sparse mix of vocals and electronic dance beats, merged with monologues. She has toured extensively with one of the longer ones, "Blue Sky Versus Night Sky." A visual artist as well, her drawings and paper sculptures have been exhibited in Seattle, Olympia and Portland.
