Corinna Melanie shares an eclectic array of piano-driven, soulful, ruthlessly-delivered cautionary tales of the alternative-pop, soul-noir persuasion. Her song-writing is greatly inspired by the 1920s and 50s, the varying perspectives she’s been offered regarding the unfortunate state of the human condition, the beauty where it still remains, the subject lines of spam emails, Shel Silverstein, the Dark Side, and unlikely parallels.

Through her art, Corinna strives to shed a glaring beam of light on the absurdly extraordinary within the mundane and ordinary interactions of daily life on a personal, romantic, occasionally voyeuristic, consistently cosmic, and universally applicable level. In both the band’s live performance, and her recently released EP Primal Kitchen Film, all this and often quite a bit more is forcefully conveyed, without remorse, through the dramatic, only 60% sarcastic cynical melodies that both carry and comprise her narrative songs.

Corinna has performed her music with the talented likes of Jordyn Blakely(drums), Val Thompson(cello), Emily Moore(violin/fiddle), Kate Cahill(violin), Ariel Bernstein(drums/percussion), Kristen Ford(guitar), Chelsea Brannon(backing vocals). She’s been performing her music both solo, and with her band around Boston and NYC for the better part of two years now. She’s been honored to have played alongside The Box Five, Mighty Tiny, Natti Vogel, The Kristen Ford Band, and many other regulars within, and outside of the Boston music scene. Corinna has performed at The Lilypad (Cambridge), The Middle East, TT the Bear’s Place, All Asia Cafe, Johnny D’s, Midway Cafe (Boston), in addition to renowned indie rock venues such as Goodbye Blue Monday and Vivaldi’s in NYC. She would like to meet you.
