Micci has been the live vocalist for DJ duo, Peking Duk since 2017 which has had her touring the world singing in clubs, auditoriums, stadiums and headlining the most renowned festivals and events around the globe. Prior to this, Micci completed a world tour as the live vocalist for DJ duo, Flight Facilities.

In 2015, Micci’s star qualities and magical aura was recognised on X Factor Australia. Dannii Minogue took her under her wing and mentored her through the competition where she finished at top 7.

Her experience and love for performing live goes back to when she was very young, starting out in choirs, writing and recording her first album at 13, and heading overseas when she graduated high school to find opportunities.

For many years, Micci (also known as Michaela Baranov & The Baroness) has written for and featured on dance releases by other artists (eg. Ocean – Beth Yen ft The Baroness, which claimed #1 on the ARIA club charts for 3 consecutive weeks in 2019.)

Now, she is releasing I’m A Rainbow into the world (12 August 2022). If you have met Micci or seen her perform, you understand that the title is accurate. She is a spectrum of love and light. Created with Reuben Styles (1 half of Peking Duk), the lyrics stemmed from wanting to overcome self doubt and basing validation on the opinion of others, which is something that we can all relate to. Despite the melancholic undertone, her statement is bold and the images are empowering.

Coinciding with I’m A Rainbow, Micci is touring around Australia with solo shows already booked until the end of the year, whilst continuing her performing role with Peking Duk.
