Audio Collection
Soaring
Melissa McClain
Listen. Dance. Be Moved. Sway to these strong, soaring melodies, from mellow folk to up-beat pop, when you feel like dancing. But also take the time to read the lyrics when you're in a more pensive mood. There's more to discover than just a great beat.

Description
As a student at the University of Virginia in the late '80s and early '90s, Melissa McClain sang and played guitar as a member of a band, The Taming of Rex, and an acoustic duo, Talhelm and Thompson.
After graduating and moving to Michigan, her job as a high school English teacher forced music into the background.
However, after missing performing for all those years, she's planned a comeback.
A busy summer and fall of working with producer/singer-songwriter Michael King has brought about Melissa's debut CD entitled "Soaring." The collection is a mixture of lighthearted, up-beat tunes and more thoughtful, literature-inspired narratives.
Her songs let the listener in--to the struggle for freedom, to the thawing of the heart when one falls in love, to self-criticism and searching.
Accompanied by strong, soaring melodies, these songs showcase the poetics of lyricism.
Currently, Melissa is playing around the Ann Arbor, Michigan area that she calls home.
