About Me |
|
Melpomeni is the muse of tragedy in ancient Greek mythology. I like her. We speak regularly. In other words, I am a Drama Queen and rather proud of the fact. I want to be free. If I could rub the genie's bottle, I'd like to have coffee with Bob Dylan, a session in the studio with Scott Walker and a bottle of red wine with Diamanda Galas. If I could be any historical person, I'd be a lighthouse keeper. I play my miseries all around the world to lots of lovely people with generous ears. I recently shared a stage with Boy George in London for a celebration of Marc Bolan's birthday which was a glittering ball of light and a fabulous event for a very glamorous man. Some nights, when I remember to take my piano home, I play to nobody which I like just as much. The only problem is my neighbours. They want to shoot me, especially when I play 'I Want Him Dead'. I think they take it personally. My forthcoming album, '9 Tragedies, 3 Love Songs and a Breakdown' is an exploration of the darker side of paradise. Keep checking this site for more psychodrama and details of upcoming gigs. Here's what producer Mike Bennett (The Fall, Stone Roses, The Stranglers) had to say about it: 'Melpomeni finds shelter from convenient categorisation in a dense thicket of moody orchestration, lyrical ambiguity, and a quirky take on light and shade. I always go for someone with a strong sense of individuality and pathos. She is one of these unique characters who always provides a spark of surprise.' My debut release on Lighthouse Records is due out in digital download format from Monday 21st July 2008 via The Orchard, servicing iTunes, E-Music, Last FM, Napster amongst others. |

4 or 5 things about Melpomeni |

| I am a Londoner of Greek Australian extraction. Some people have a fetish for feet, others for bondage and others still, for passports.
