Melanie Iglesias of New York City native stands no taller than 5’7”, weighs no more than 115 lbs, yet her words are timeless, eloquent and emphatically powerful. Raised in Brooklyn and Long Island, along with seven other siblings, Melanie’s childhood was beset with the friction of her parents’ divorce and the struggles of maintaining stability while constantly moving. New homes meant new schools, and it was her high school music teacher Joanne Nolemi who initially recognized Melanie’s inherent talent and ambition. “I always had a vision and [Nolemi] embraced it and encouraged me to utilize it. I was soon putting together shows- music, blocking and even costumes for more than sixty people. Imagine that. Iglesias chose to remain in NY with her father rather than move to Florida with her mother and the other siblings. “New York was where my career had to be whether or not my dad thought music was the best choice. I don’t need to prove anything, though. I just want to help. I want to improve situations.” Witnessing her mother maintain the family as a single parent further instilled the essence Iglesias aims to propagate. Currently Miss Iglesias’ days consist of working full-time and spending most every other waking moment writing music or recording in the studio.
