Influences
I wish I were in love with a deaf-mute man
It would be really nice to be seen so true
And he'd guess it right away if I were blue.

I wish I were in love with a deaf-mute man
I'd know he loves me back without some spoken thing,
I'd know he loves me back not for the songs I sing
Sounds Likeshe should have practiced a bit more when her folks told her to...
Type of LabelUnsigned

   About melisa collins

Melisa used to be the fiddle player in Melbourne band THE RESTLESS (www.myspace.com/restlessthe), but they disbanded in May 2006.

Now she plays with EVA POPOV

www.evapopov.com
www.myspace.com/evapopovtrio

and DREW SUTHERLAND

www.drewsutherland.com.au
www.myspace.com/drewsutherland

...aaand when she's at home, (in between weeding her garden and turning up at her civilian dayjob), Mel makes herself available as a session musician to other bands for recording and gigs. Her growing list of credits includes Carl Pannuzzo, Deloris, Dandelion Wine, Tim Downey, Australian Fiddle Music School, Libby Langford, Sympathy 7, Hayley Clare Quintet, Damian Pitcairn, Lee Galea's short films, Jeff Samin, Alex Hallahan and more... This page is pretty much the only place you'll hear her solo stuff, (unless you bring something yummy to her house, or you pay her to play at your wedding.)



aaaand...... give us a yell if you want a fiddle! xo
