New England Songwriter and Vocalist
Your hiatus from the hustle & bustle.
“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

"Melissa D is a combination of talent! Her songs/music are like a soothing bath caressing the soul after a hard day, intelligently written with catchy phrasings that are refreshingly unique.
