singer, songwriter and performance artist Melleny Melody embodies both the sultry style and adorable cuteness of one destined to reign in Diva Queendom.
It was Melleny Melodys unique ability to move easily through all forms of pop culture that took her into the music arena.In the 90s, her talent as a singer, songwriter and performer exploded when she opened the famous Bubbalicious Lounge in Toronto, a perfect showcase for the up and coming First Lady of Lounge to dress up in vibrant costumes and off-the-chart wigs Melleny Melody had arrived and she was taking the kitchen with her!
Using her prolific knowledge of the dance, disco and deep house music culture, she then founded Play Records, a label devoted solely to the best in down n dirty dance music. She teamed with Spydabrown to explore other music genre like old school jungle, drum and bass, broken beats, techno and hip hop. Most recently Melleny formed a sub label PlayDigital to get the electro music out digitally around the world which proved most successful with AFTERHOURS being a 1 Hit on Beatport for several weeks in feb 2007 And most recently being nominated for a Juno Award with partner in crime deadmau5
Over the years, Melleny Melodys flavorful and always entertaining performances have caught the eye of TV producers, including Nelvana, which picked her as the voice of Cheer Bear and Baby Tugs in the smash hit kids TV series, The Care Bears.
In keeping with her cartoon-like characters, she teamed with composer and arranger John Henry Nyenhuis to produce Cartoon Songs to Drive you Crazy, a collision of 90s digital and 30s Big Band sounds that evoke images of Betty Boop, Shirley Temple and Marilyn Monroe.
Her video of Im so Happy, nabbed a Silver Award at the Houston World Fest in the mid-90s for Best Music Video/Best New Artist and her recording of Gravity was featured in the award-winning short film, Weight of the World.
Melleny Melody has also performed on BMGs Cocktail Shaken and Stirred compilation, singing Superman by the Crash Test Dummies and Courage by The Tragically Hip.
Words can't describe how much I love to dance to your mix of "Hey Baby" with Deadmau5. My friend DJ Vinny Carlo always plays it at his residency in Boston, and I love shakin' my ass to that song. You go girl
