So delighted and grateful for an epic holiday show with so many familiar faces and new faces in the house! Putting on our first ever annual holiday show to raise funds for The Santa Claus Fund was an exciting challenge and so rewarding. Thank you for opening the show. So much talent! And my fabulous band and hunky Peter Collins thank you for your hard work and dedication! Thank you for your awesome stage and sound! Thank you to everyone who came out and to those who couldn’t come to the show but gave anyway. We have a nice little chunk of change to contribute to the fund! Yay! I look forward to doing this again next year. Meantime, happy holiday everyone! See you in 2024 ❤️🎶🤩🎄🍾. 📸 by

Melanie Peterson ~ May I Have Your Midnight ? 05/12/2023

Two Christmases ago I wrote, recorded and released this song called "May I Have Your Midnight" - which I really loved, but for some reason or other never got around to playing live. I was listening to it this fall and thought it would be fun to do a full band version of the song. The recording of the song is much more stripped-down but it is always fun to reinterpret recorded songs with the band. Here is "May I Have Your Midnight" produced by Derek Downham - ethereal version. Hope to see you at the show 7pm Thursday at The Dakota Tavern, where I'll be excited to play this song and more for you!

Thank you, thank you for your wonderful support Saturday night! You made our full band performance at The Dakota Tavern a success! kicked things off with a rare solo performance blowing everyone away with her clever lyrics and hooky tunes. Then the band and I had a blast playing a long set and it was fabulous to see so many of you up on the dance floor bustin’ a move to Love You Tonight, Lillian, Most Beautiful Girl in the World and One Tequila! And the sing-a-long at the end of the show, you guys really let it rip, and we loved it. Thanks for letting me know, post show, you liked the new tune Living Large ❤️So glad everyone had such a great time and encouraged us to play one more show before 2024. Your wish is my command! Save this date: Thurs Dec 7 we are planning a Christmas party/fundraiser show at The Dakota and we’d love to have you there! Stay tuned for more info! ❤️❤️ 📸 by
