Melissa Greener
Melissa Greener writes songs. She plays guitar. She sings. For people everywhere. For money. For love. But mostly because she just has to. Greener was born and reared in Mo-Town on a dark, dreary, winter, wee-morning. Leaving home at her first chance, she has been touring everywhere, ever since...
“I once climbed the second highest mountain in the Swiss Alps. I once trekked the second highest mountain range in the world in Slovakia. I once spent two weeks at the holiest mountain in Tibet. I once climbed the Sinai. I once rode my bicycle from Vancouver, British Columbia all the way to North Sydney, Nova Scotia. I once lived in a little village in China where porcelain was discovered - 2000 years ago - occurring naturally in the ground. I once sailed so far into the Mediterranean I couldn't see land. I once saw so many stars in an Egyptian desert I couldn't see the sky.
“I'm told by my mother (who was a lounge singer at the Playboy Club in Detroit, and a classically trained operatic vocalist) that she would hear me through closed door, singing "like a soprano" when I was a very small girl. My mother was a ballerina. My dad is a hippie. I am in recovery.”
‘Fall From the Sky’, Greener’s debut release, continues to receive rave reviews from an international music community. Her sophomore effort helmed by acclaimed producer John Jennings (Mary Chapin Carpenter) is due for a spring 2010 release.
Greener tours throughout North America and Europe. She sings truths she’s come to believe in - stretching some, in the name of art... An Austin, Texas based singer-songwriter, Greener currently resides in the East Village of Manhattan.
Melissa Greener proudly endorses Greenfield Guitars, Model G4.2LT and Model G3.2
