MP3 Sara Melson - five song EP
5 MP3 Songs
ROCK: Psychedelic, POP: Folky Pop
Details:
Sara Melson has supported such acts as Juliana Hatfield, Ian Ball (Gomez), Jill Sobule, Marjorie Fair, Miranda Lee Richards, Beachwood Sparks, and BRMC. At home both with and without a band, she moves between electric and acoustic guitar and the piano, creating dreamy, psychedelic folk-pop.
"Like Laura Nyro hooking up with Beggars'' Banquet-era Rolling Stones... something special."
--Steven Mirkin, Daily Variety
"Sometimes, to expose oneself at one''s most fragile and vulnerable is the ultimate act of courage. And if that''s the case, then Sara Melson is one of the most fearless singer-songwriters on the planet. Her quiet strength certainly shines through in her winsome space-balladry, for Sara is woman blessed with the rare ability to play an acoustic guitar and rock it with the power of a dozen Marshall stacks; to sing in a hushed whisper that carries more power and purity and passion than any blowhard-y American Idol diva could possibly muster; and to plead for a man''s unconditional love without sounding the least bit needy or pathetic (quite the contrary, she merely comes across as righteous and reasonable--after all, why wouldn''t a man love someone like her?). So, while countless female singer-songwriters are perplexingly labeled "Women In Rock" despite the utter lack of anything even remotely rockin'' about their wimpy, waify coffeehouse fodder, in the case of Sara Melson, it''s a term that most definitely applies. Because, no matter how muted her murmur or gentle her guitar-strumming, Sara just rocks, plain and simple."

"Thanks to Sara Melson, the usual opening act restlessness was noticeably absent from the Monday night air of the Hotel Café. At no point did the girl in red lose audience interest while sailing through her 30 minutes. Melson opened the gates with a golden ticket, displaying her delicate treatment of Willy Wonka''s Pure Imagination. Sara''s originals seemed to follow through with a sense of urgency, each song challenging the next...with an acoustic guitar and piano both sharing her touch...Melson''s style is unique...one gets the impression that she has a secret."
--Alex Boerschinger, https://www.tradebit.com
"Sara is power, possessing the steel of a full moon''s shine. One of her songs, ''leader or follower'', may well be the anthem for the next presidential election. So Sara''s secret genius is secret no more. May the force of Sara be with you."
--Nora Maccoby, Testimonial
