About Me

Melissa, a winner of the Long Island Music Hall of Fame distinction in music scholarship, aims to inspire a whole new generation through her deeply emotive vocal timbre, strong musical presence and nostalgic original music that connects her with audiences as she carries on the legacy of her musical family.
