Melanie A. PierceKeyboardist, flutist, vocalist

Providing a fun and relaxed atmosphere in which people can enjoy themselves is what I like to do.

A longtime Northeast Ohio area singer and musician, I will bring experience and a touch of class to your special event.

With smooth vocals, a strong sense of rhythm and the ability to make a song my own, I incorporate Swing, Jazz, Latin, R&B and Pop styles into classics, popular tunes and holiday music from eras that span every decade since the 1920's.

I am available as a solo keyboard artist/vocalist, or as a one-time or ongoing flutist/vocalist addition to your music group.

I would enjoy the opportunity to provide for your music needs.
