Melissa Black

Australian Award Winner and Rudy Brandsma Nominee, Melissa Black is inspired by nature and the divine feminine. Black’s songs come from her deep connection with the ocean and mountains weaving these natural elements into her life’s heart journey, creating to give her story a voice and a place in time. Hear the hush of an ancient rainforest, the surge of an untamed ocean and the heartbeat of Gaia herself.

Black’s sublime debut, ‘The Eden Project’ has a bespoke, hand crafted edge to it, uniquely and unashamedly Australian. Featuring piano driven songs supported by solid groove, understated guitars and a conversational vocal delivery which evokes the rich Australian landscape and an empowering feminine essence. Teaming up with one of Lutruwita’s best exports, producer Scott Bird and Seattle sound engineer Andrew Beck, Black’s body of work features blissful uplifting tracks, positive vibes and a stirring message.

Everything about Melissa Black’s 70’s inspired Pop tracks shout, ‘Serious artist!’ Melissa is a strong female voice, which is something today’s music scene just doesn’t have enough of right now. She hearkens back to the singer/songwriters of yesteryear. Black radiates with love and shares that enthusiasm with her audience, for her work is impossible to ignore and provides confirmation, if its needed, that her impact on the music world is very far from tiny.

“My precious family these songs are for you. For you are my Eden, my heart, my home”
