  • Let me start this whole thing with a big hug heartfelt thanks to all my patrons. you are the ones that keep me singing writing and keeping me going
    Over time I have experienced different takes ,perspectives and misconceptions in regards to artists and in this case me. And while it may be difficult or absolutely impossible to give people reality on my situation, I will attempt to do so. Basically I’m struggling.
    I spent this entire life except for 18 years at the very beginning ,singing, writing, performing music for a group of you who have become my dear ones. And earning a living doing that has been an emotional and financial roller coaster.
    A feast or famine ride at this at times nightmarish amusement park of life. I was fortunate/unfortunate(double edged sword) to be married to a very old world man, self appointed knight in shining armor ,who defended protected and did all he could .Keeping me creating without having to face “real life“ ,mind you he was never over bearing, always considered everything I had to say but did not leak information he thought might hinder creativity, break my heart or hurt my soul. he armored me in this way for the entire time we were together. In retrospect it was a magical life, laced with mystery ,confusion and song… Song after song ,after song ,recording after recording after recording. All while raising a family .Three
    children ,Leilah, Jeordie and Beau Jarred. With Leilah and Jeordie (the girls)I bare regrets that with the girls ,I didn’t spend more hands on time. With Beau Jarred ~I grabbed him and hardly let him out of my sight, “I’m going to experience motherhood
    goddamnit.”And busy ,busy ,busy ,we opened neighborhood records the first woman owned record label actually the first artist owned record label in the US. Melanie enters the corporate world, hysterical ,as I am fond of saying”I waver between historic and hysteric. “
    I opened a restaurant , again naïveté, I like to cook that is not the same thing as opening a restaurant ,duh🙄My dear ones you have stayed with me through thick or thin. The industry has changed in many ways ,some eluding my understanding. It seems to have lost sight of the value of the Creator(double meaning). I could have sold my soul ,literally ,there were offers. Naïveté.I figuratively slapped the face of the powers that be.’Nuff said. Peter, in his physical form has been out of the equation for 10 years . The first four or five of those years were clouded by the deepest grief, yet a strong sense of survival and purpose. I became reunited with another kind of protector, one that has been there all the while,only now I trust in it. Call it gut feeling,The God voice ,intuition or the music of Angels
    I have never been more in tune and except for the bothersome iPhone attached to my hand ,I have never been more connected, hence I keep writing on and on.
    I grew up self reliant, to never ask for help ,borrow ,never be a victim do something about whatever it is. I began a Patreon site. This is where as in the Golden Age artists go directly to the people who get their music , who feel a particular singer songwriter is a worthy and ask them to become patrons. As I have said the industry has changed .My earnings have been unjustly assigned to others. And then there are the many hows and whys artists are denied their rightful compensation .So we go to the people directly. As in the Golden age we depend on the nobility in each of us to keep the artist alive,thriving and continuing to create the music that nourishes the soul
    So please join me on Patreon where there is more information, contact ,involvement, where she becomes me and Melanie Monday is every day, and my gratitude for your support abounds
    Love Melanie

    Greetings from western Massachusetts.
    Soul Sister Annie is what I thought was the first Melanie song I heard back in high school. Her psychotherapy parody set to the battle hymn of the republic has always been fun. I’m glad I collected Melanie records (vinyl) throughout my teens and twenties, and played them around my sons and daughters from my twenties and beyond. Thank you for all the beautiful music you have made, recorded and performed. We really love you. ❤✌🏽
