Raised in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia..Steeped in the singer-songwriter forte,rock, folk, gospel, Motown, and country she was exposed to at an early age. A believer in songs that come from the heart and soul...a story-teller.
As a songwriter has had cuts by Tom Rush, Helen Darling and Rick Trevino. She has lived many lives, and tells the truth...with a groove.
Melanie now works with her husband Daniel Cooper on acoustic guitar and vocals as an acoustic all original duo and also with Chris Patrick on bass and vocals as an acoustic trio called the Melanie Rose Dyer Trio.
