Anna Vitale initiated Melting Moments in 2001 as a solo project. After enlisting Jason Voss for recording assistance, we began playing shows and recording as duo. Our first album, "There is a Rat in Separate" was issued in 2005 on We're Twins Records. We are currently preparing for some live shows in the early spring and working on new material for a new release, tentatively scheduled for release May 2007. Anna is also a poet, a master of fine art, a teacher and curator of Submissions audio art journal. Jason is also a solo performer, a porter, and host of "Jazz & Non-Jazz" on WCBN 88.3 FM Ann Arbor Sundays 9-11pm.
