Melanie Edwards / Press

“Melanie, You are soooooo talented it is scary...and I mean scary in a great way! Your voice is amazing- the songs sound completely world class when it comes to production and musicianship - and I think you wrote some amazing lyrics. LOOK OUT! If there was a way to buy stock in your career- I'd be buying and telling all my friends to do the same- so please understand that I am a HUGE fan... and that I completely believe you have all the talent you need- and then some- to write "hit" songs. Keep doing what you are doing style wise Melanie... and keep up the fantastic work!"”

EP: Between The Binary - Artist Development Company

“Highly-adventurous with respect to melody/overall musicality, with jazz-influenced changes and an intelligently-crafted lyric. I really like the title and its metaphor. Very professionally-produced with a high quality level of musicianship and vocal prowess apparent.”

"Who's Gonna Color in the Middle?" - West Coast Publishing House

“I'm immediately smitten with your voice, which sounds incredibly expressive.”

"Who's Gonna Color in the Middle?" - National/International Independent Label Distributors

“You have a great voice Melanie. I have NEVER heard anyone do the motorboat sound with their mouth in a song before...and it was surprisingly well done here! You have some obvious talent as a singer performer and writer. You have all the talent you need to be very successful.”

"Sugar" - Artist Management Company - Artist Rosters

“Confident , dramatic, theatrical lead vocal delivery and personal vision woven into this descriptive narrative. The intensity of your performance is a highlight here... oh and "Melanie Edwards, commands the attention of her listeners, captivating them with her haunting vocals, intricate compositions and songbird melodies"...OK! We believe you.”

"Who's Gonna Color in the Middle?" - Two-time Grammy-nominated Producer

“Melanie - you have some well written lyrics and melodies. The chorus stands out from the verses and is memorable both lyrically and melodically. You have a cool sounding voice with a distinctive and appealing style. The vocals have a lot of emotion and is very believable. The musicianship is solid - the track is tight and there are some interesting parts.”

Taxi, Music Publishers

"Absolutely wonderful music, Cheers! ( it's great to find new and different music, experimental is fantastic.)"

Oscar Falcón Lara - Mashable - digital fan

"As a musician, I’m always interested in hearing about the creative process. Enjoyed the musical sample too- great stuff. I love what Melanie said about viewing it as a musical lab, experimenting with sound. I’ve always been fascinating in translating colors to tones. Always wondered what exactly different pieces of music looked like for people with synesthesia too…"

"I’m very happy for Mellie. I love the songs and, as a musician myself, there’s nothing better than being a channel for musical inspiration. Live long and prosper Mellie Mel!"

"Love the album but for the life of me, I can't figure out why I end up with a new favorite song every time I listen to it."

Richard Gandon - digital fan

"I posted Daniel's lane on my page... I think it is my favorite but it is a hard choice. I like them all. Hope you see you when you go on tour...I am really into the concept of the lab, and how you have combined your love for music and science. Super creative! I am excited to one day meet you in person, and am happy to be a supporter of your music... besides the fact that I really like it :) I am such an advocate for strong women living out dreams! Keep ROCKIN!"

Carla Montague - digital fan

"Loved your performance. You are one multi-talented chick, best of luck with the Southern tour."

Kathy Riley - Googie's Lounge Residency, June 24th show, Lower East Side, Manhattan

“I always knew you could grind out the piano and violin, but I didn't know you had that voice. Everybody that came to the show with me thought you were incredible. It really was the highlight of our night. "Sugar" has been stuck in my head today and I have been belting it out all day long.”

Norris Adams - Loyal fan and attorney at large

"You are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! I love your songs! Climbed inside of me...truly fabulous!"
