Angel Bouchet

Angel Bouchet was born in a small town in Southern Oregon. Her life began in tragedy. Her mother was diagnosed with cancer at the same time as she became aware of her pregnancy. Bouchet's mother chose to bring the pregnancy to term and as a result died of cancer when Bouchet was 4 years old. This was to influence her later inclination to become a blues musician. Today she fronts her own band, The Angel Bouchet Band, which plays primarily in the Portland, Oregon area.Bouchet appeared as a recurring extra in the first production year of the IFC TV series Portlandia, in 2010. Fred Armisten, star of the show, along with Carrie Brownstein, said it was "good audience response" that led to Bouchet being brought back to reappear as lighting tech, bartender, and multiple other characters in the series. During this time period Bouchet also appeared as an extra in the TV series Grimm, portraying a bouncer, a pedestrian, an attendee at a cage fight, and a bar patron. Bouchet appears as a co-star in two of the three Portlandia episodes she appears in during season 4. Show less «
