Making a Scene Presents an Interview with Mike Michel of The Orange GoodnessThe Orange Goodness is an exciting groove-fueled indie rock group that creates out of Minneapolis, Minnesota and features Mike Michel (guitars,vocals) Ian Allison (bass) and Reese Kling (drums). The Orange Goodness collaboration grew organically from a solo recording and auditory health campaign Mike Michel created in 2017 called On The Mend. On The Mend was dedicated to raising awareness for tinnitus and hyperacusis. Mike was afforded the opportunity to perform the songs from On The Mend on multiple stages throughout the Midwest as a solo artist, but decided to expand the performance experience to a full band which led to the addition of Minnesota session aces, Ian and Reese. Their collective chemistry was immediate, vibrant, and exploratory. After two years of cultivation, The Orange Goodness officially launched their first single, Dare I Do, spring of 2020. Their debut EP, Flying Under The Radar Of Chaos, was completed during the summer of 2021, partially funded via a successful Go Fund Me Campaign.
