Regardless of what race, color, culture or language you might be, she inevitably finds her way into your heart with her energetic music and bubbly personality. Melanie, 26, has been singing since she was 5 years old, learning from a very young age how to communicate and relate to different audiences, and it is clear to anyone who watches her perform that this is what she loves doing - her passion and strength shines through her performance.

Her face has graced the covers of magazines, and she is no stranger to South African Television. Her music has reached number one on Christian radio stations, both locally and internationally, as well as on commercial and community radio.

One of Melanie’s greatest passions is Missions. She began with her community mission work at the tender age of 16, going to countries like Cambodia, Nigeria, Singapore, Bali, Indonesia, and the Philippines. She is once again planning a trip to Cambodia, a country she has visited 10 times before, and which has captured her heart. Every year she returns to this land to distribute rice, school packs, as well as clothing, and performing concerts for up to 60,000 people. She regularly appears on their national television stations as an international guest performer, and has even played Golf with the Prime Minister!

When she was 18, she sponsored the building of a church in a village on the Cambodia / Thai border, through funds she raised herself on tours across the USA and South Africa.

As a singer / performer, Melanie has huge international appeal and a growing market in demand of her time.
