Melody Angel expertly wields tensions. You can see on her face that she is bursting at the seams, carrying far more than just a melody with her message.

Another guitarist who shredded themselves into oblivion was a favorite, Melody Angel. If I had a dollar for every time I heard a person bragging about this guitar slingin’ goddess from the US this week, I’d be one seriously rich woman! With class, athleticism, and an abundance of soul, Melody is equals part Prince and Hendrix, one insanely talented vocalist and player. Her set was packed full of energy and left the crowd reeling after each of her performances.
