Sounds Like
"I have often been told that I sound like an early John Mayer..before the high tech sound effects and the recent blues route..which is a compliment seeing as he is one of my biggest inspirations as a singer/songwriter/musician. I have also been compared to James Blunt a few times which caught me a little off guard seeing as I don't sing nearly as high as he does, and look nothing like him ha ha.. But most of all I think it's easy to say that I'm compared to Dashboard because of my love for mushy deep love songs, and an apparent occasional similarity in appearance which I'm randomly often told."
-Anthony Melillo
"It is so rare now-a-days to find such a young artist with an enormous amount of talent and ability. He's bound to go far."
-Wayne Warnecke, President of Segue Records
"17-year old Anthony Melillo is first to be No. 1 on the Alive with Clive Top 20 Chart established to create a CD to be sold to raise at least a billion dollars for AIDS victims in South Africa."

CD Now Available - In Loving Memory of our friend Justin Veatch
Featuring Justin's Music and Special Track "Justin's Song"
"May your music live on!"
Anthony Melillo began playing guitar at ten years old, and has been writing songs ever since. From the age of 13, he has had an uncanny ability to use intricate lyrics to draw in his listeners. He is a word-smith, who inspires creativity, leaving room for them to co-author each work. Musicians and producers alike are left amazed at the depth and perception that comes from this young mind.
He is a unique personality being well-rounded, yet passionate about his music and songwriting. An avid actor, singer and dancer, the energy he gives every project is nothing short of electric. Because of this, his fan base spans all ages and is anxiously awaiting the release of his debut album, as well as his next theatrical show. He loves working at the mall or at his favorite Tapas restaurant in town but, on his down time, he enjoys watching professional sports, hanging with his brothers or playing a challenging game of Texas Hold 'Em with his buddies.
His goal this coming year is to get his music out to the public. He is looking forward to seeing you out there and meeting those of you he hasn't met yet at his upcoming appearances and shows. He is also looking forward to finishing up his senior year in high school and moving on to his college career where he plans to pursue music composition, songwriting and vocal studies at Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA.
When asked about his short-range plans after his debut album release, he answered, "I'm going to keep writing songs and putting them up right here so you guys can tell me what you think! Thanks for visiting my myspace!"

Thanks again. Anthony. You truly serve it. Just watched some of those vides and heard a radio interview with you. That was interesting and really cool. You've got a rare style sort of Beach Boys rolled up into the acoustic sound and story telling in your songs. Those clips are impressive. And I like your voice. Relaxed, laid back and warms up the listener and audience. Great tunes. Always love to hear a Anthony Melillo song.
