MishCatt is the artistic pseudonym for Michelle Marie González Telford (born January 29, 1992), a singer-songwriter from San Jose, Costa Rica. She has previously performed and released music in the Costa Rica–based pop band Patterns,[1] but left the band in 2014 to focus on her solo project.[2]

She released her debut EP EP[3] in March 2016, and it quickly became the most played Costa Rican artist in the history of Spotify, getting more than six million plays in less than two months.[4] The EP was recorded in Stockholm, Sweden and is produced by Pontus Winnberg (Miike Snow, Amason).[5] The song "Another Dimension" peaked at number 17 on the Swedish Heatseeker chart.[6]

On December 5, 2019, Gonzalez performed live vocals for the song "Fades Away" originally recorded by Noonie Bao during Avicii Tribute Concert at Friend's Arena, Stockholm.[7] She also released a studio recording of the performance.[8]

In 2020 she has released two songs, 'Pavo' and 'Midnight Sun', from her upcoming EP The real Pavo, which is released by Amuse (music company).[9] Also in 2020 she collaborated with Sofia Reyes for the song Goofy Pt.2.
