On REVERIE ….FROM THEN TILL NOW, Michellar fully steps into a new chapter as an artist, offering an album that feels personal, thoughtful, and built to last. Released on January 2, 2026, the 12 track project unfolds like a reflective journal, shaped by lived experience and a deep trust in the power of honest storytelling. Rather than chasing trends, the album stays grounded in sincerity and purpose.
Written entirely by Michellar, with collaborative support from Tobias Wilson, the album draws from classic folk traditions while speaking with a modern emotional clarity. Influenced by the music she grew up with, including Peter, Paul and Mary, James Taylor, and Carole King, her songwriting carries a familiar warmth and plainspoken honesty. After stepping away from music to focus on her landscape design business, this return feels natural and timely, less like a comeback and more like answering something she never truly left behind.
The opening track, “It’s Another Year,” sets the mood with a thoughtful look at time, resilience, and personal growth. From there, the album moves like a series of diary entries. “Running Wild” and “Intersection” reflect restlessness and turning points, while “Promise” and “Never Say Sorry” explore responsibility and emotional maturity. The pacing feels intentional, allowing each song to unfold without pressure.
Songs such as “September” and “We Both Can Fall” approach vulnerability with care and restraint. “The Letter” and the title track “Reverie” stand out as especially inward looking, giving listeners a clear view into Michellar’s inner life. “Get Me There to Church” brings a gentle gospel influence, while “Conquer All with Love” reinforces the album’s central message of healing through faith, connection, and compassion. The closing track, “The Star,” leaves the listener with a quiet, well earned sense of hope.
Tobias Wilson’s steady production and musical guidance help shape an atmosphere that gives Michellar’s voice and stories room to breathe. The collaboration feels balanced and purposeful, supporting the songs rather than overshadowing them.
REVERIE ….FROM THEN TILL NOW is more than a set of songs. It is a reflection on rediscovery, endurance, and what it means to find your voice again after a long pause. Now streaming on all platforms, this is an album that invites listeners to slow down, listen closely, and stay with it long after it ends.
