Dirty Mind
by Sara Melson
One of the Most Fearless Singer-Songwriters


SARA MELSON- singer/songwriter extraordinaire, releases "DIRTY MIND" for Nettwerk Music Group. The self-produced debut album combines 12 songs graced by flowing melodies, vigorous grooves, and plainspoken poetry.

"Sara's voice and melodies are haunting, the lyrics raw and bare," says Nettwerk CEO Terry McBride. "ItÂ's an infectious combination that keeps her songs swirling in your head for weeks on end."

Dirty Mind developed slowly over time, "guerilla-style," as Sara puts it, while she sustained herself as a yoga instructor and children's music teacher. While the birth process may have been arduous, the result is a collection of bright pop songs, meditative ballads, and propulsive rockers. Standouts include the anthemic "Feel It Coming," which was recently featured in an episode of Grey's Anatomy, and Â"Never Been Hurt,Â" a timeless, classic pop ballad that delivers one of the album's most memorable lyrical and vocal hooks with a soothing, melancholic melody.

The full-length album is the follow up to Sara's 2003 self-release, Five Song EP, which she recorded at home and in the studios of friends. Launch/Yahoo made it a Top Ten Pick in its Cool as Folk Radiocast; songs from the EP aired on Indie 103.1, XM Satellite Radio, and KCRW, and were featured in the ABC television show Men In Trees, the new Viacom show South Of Nowhere, and the independent film Spectres.

Sara Melson also caught the eyes and ears of the new NBC series, "Quarterlife." From the creators of My So-Called Life, the show focuses on twenty-somethings coming of age in the digital generation. Tune in soon to Quarterlife.com to see an exclusive intimate acoustic performance of two songs featured on Sara's forthcoming album.

With her self-produced debut album Dirty Mind in stores February 26th, Sara is ready to hit the road, both solo and with her band. "I want to let my music take me wherever it wants to go," she says. "On record, you capture a unique moment in time. It's amazing and beautiful to have that documented, but I'm constantly evolving beyond that as an artist, as a singer and as a player. If you come to see me live expecting to hear just what's on the record, you're going to be pleasantly surprised."
