MELISSA'S UPCOMING SHOWS...




Early December 2010 I had the pleasure of being interviewed by Anna Oakes of the High Country Press, Boone, NC... We met at Espresso News for our first of 3 separate interviews. Anna and I talked for about 2 and a half hours and the result was this fabulous article detailing most of my life in music and more !! Some cool quotes from my peers, friends and even my mom! It was a real honour, thanks Anna and everyone at the High Country Press ...ENJOY

It’s time again for my annual Holiday Show. This year will mark year number 9 !!! In eight years of Holiday Shows we've had 1 tipsy Santa, 2 disgruntled reindeer, 3 fiddlers fiddling, 1 bagpipe blowing, 1 clappist clapping, 3 steel drums drumming, a rock.n.roll jam to top the evening off & Ms. Santa in a bustier!!!!
So the challenge is on...

I'm 'chompin'-at-the-bit to get the show started.... So put on your best 'bib and tucker' and come bend an elbow, its sure to be a hot time in the old town...

A show debuting new music I have been doing quietly (and not so quietly at times).... AVANTDANCEELECTRIC is mix of avant garde electronica. Some VERY ambient listening pieces and some pure and simple DANCE remixes of my music I've traditionally been performing as a band or solo... In lieu of a recent hand injury I've decided to continue with most of the tour dates I have booked, 'cast' aside any reservations & do something completely new and unfamiliar. Zoning out and dancing your own way are highly encouraged.

AVANTDANCELECTRIC Dates




My second experimental piece to incorporate dance, Hadean 1 was born out of a collaboration with NC choreographer Alex Smith and his work, Relinquish: The Intermediary of Knowing and Being.
This will be our NC debut of the collaborative work.
