Melissa Kate Productions

0 Reviews

A trained Stage & Voice Actress, Writer, and Singer, this Troy, NY native commands attention when onstage. Melissa has been the lead vocalist for over 17 years with the George Scott Big Band, and a touring member of Taylor Made Jazz. Her powerful voice makes her natural in blues and R&B, and since she trained at Fredonia in Opera and Musical Theatre, her skill clearly crosses genres with ease.  She’s charming, compelling. Her own band, The Melissa Kate Project, uses the blend of jazz, theatre and storytelling to create funky and memorable shows.

 “I will use every part of my craft to reach you, to draw you in. I will entertain, I will make  you laugh, or cry. I’ll wow you with vocal power, pull you into the song’s story.” She makes full use of her band—letting each musician share the spotlight. “This is about the audience,” she says. “They want not only a magnificent singer, and tremendous musicians, which we provide—they want to have an experience. I want to reach each person in that audience, in one way or another. If it’s a drum solo, or a tear-jerking love song, I want to satisfy their musical craving.”
