Melanie George has been playing music and singing since she was 6 – roughly a year after she started bugging her parents daily to buy her a piano. Her classical training and love of contemporary music means she has a comprehensive understanding of what her voice and chosen instrument are capable of, allowing her to melt classical, blues, pop and dance grooves seamlessly for an inspiring effect. She has supported acts as diverse as Deborah Conway and Ben Folds, joined Frank Bennett in duet, and has never been out of place or out of her league. Melanie released her debut EP ‘On My Way’ in late 2002 and has enjoyed the support of Triple J and many other east coast radio stations. Presently she’s preparing demos for a second EP and is playing wherever and whenever she can because that’s what she does. |
