Most recently she released “Your Heart is a Black as Night” (2011) as a single, not available on iTunes, or Amazon, but it is featured in a commercial for a European automobile . It is on MY ONE AND ONLY THRILL album.

In 2003 Melody was struck by a Jeep while riding her bike in Philadelphia. She spent a year in the hospital recovering from severe injuries to her spine, pelvis and brain. The neural injuries have left her with a permanent sensitivity to light and sound. She suffered short and long term memory loss, and had difficulty speaking because she could not recall the words to express her feelings.
Her Doctors thought she may never recover, because the neural pathways between the brain cortexes which control perception and a higher mental function were damaged and they suggested she use music therapy to help rebuild the neural pathways, and from that her career has emerged. She was going to school at the time of the accident studying fashion. She had studied the piano for many years and performed in local clubs, but not as a recording artist at the time of the injury.
She has devoted herself to using music therapy for healing and promotes it with every opportunity and works with hope to use her experience to help others.
The sound of her voice and the music quality she delivers is pleasing to the ear, and she writes with heart and feeling of someone that is far beyond her years and experiences. One can only anticipate her next album. Enjoy!
