Mikhaëlle performs in many venues, different festivals, and on different tours in Canada, Mexico, and France with different ensembles, namely with the Teresina Quartet along with Jim Hillman, Salsalazar, Impulso Flamenco, and her new collective Mikha.elles. As a multi-talented artist, she has appeared several times as a backing singer in the popular television show « En direct de l’univers », a Radio-Canada production, and also made an appearance at the Radio-Canada 75th anniversary gala.
