Mel Watson
Mel Watson will perform at the Roxy on Saturday, November 21st at 7:30pm. (Doors open at 7pm.) The news release about this event says:
From her incarnation as a leading talent in the Australian sensation ‘Fruit’ to her recent solo work, Mel Watson is one of the most innovative indie artists to come out of Australia. As a trail-blazer, Mel is unique and exciting, crossing genres and uniting new ideas with a fresh approach. An independent touring and recording artist for over 20 years, Mel has released over 15 independent albums on various indie labels that have won her 19 Australian Music Awards for her musical ability, including 9 awards for ‘Most Outstanding Instrumentalist’. Using her powerful voice as an instrument, Mel adds thought-provoking lyrics with breathtaking horn playing layered with guitar, counter melodies and vocalized percussion. Consider yourselves in for a real treat as Mel makes her way up the shores of the Pacific to the welcoming audience of Gabriola Island, giving me the honour of presenting her for the 5th time! And if you need more, check out this Fruit performance featuring Mel on horns and vocals.
