"Melissa recently wrote a song for our wedding about me and my husband, called Compass. It was a very heartfelt song that was perfect for our story. As for someone who had barely met us before the wedding, she was able to capture our personalities perfectly!!! I'd recommend her talent to everyone!" - Gina Courcelle, Custom Song Customer and Supporter
"Lovely and uplifting music!" - E2TG - Ear to the Ground Music Blog
"Melissa D has a distinct voice that, from her very first note, immediately sets her apart from the pack. She has a lilting quality tinged with pleasingly edgy rasp, reminiscent of standouts like Suzanna Hoffs and Meredith Brooks. She sings with an openness and vulnerability that is both inviting and infectious. Her songs are familiar, like favorite childhood memories you fondly conjure up over and over, but not predictable or routine. One listen and you'll surely be back for more." - Bree Noble, CEO Women of Substance Radio & Podcast
