I, Melissa Plett, am so dang happy! What was once a “side hustle” while I toured North America, has officially turned into a legitimate career! It’s almost hard to believe.

Who knew a pandemic that took me off the touring road would still lead me to something I could put my creative ideas and experiences into?!

I cannot wait to tour again, my soul aches to hit the road, but until this pandemic calms down and let’s us tour more freely again, I’m so happy to have birthed Burn the Stage Agency and grateful for all those that have trusted me with their business thus far!

I hope you’re keeping safe, happy and strong.

Much Love,
Melissa

https://melissaplett.bandcamp.com/track/shame-on-youAnd with that, I release “Shame on You” out into the world.

This song is how my soul feels in these incredibly challenging and heartbreaking times. I hope it speaks to yours as much as it poured out of mine.A massive thank you and shout out to John Paul Peters for mixing, mastering and playing that emotional violin. And to MJ Dandeneau for playing her, gosh, how do I describe it… playing the bowed bass to match the aching in my soul ❤

If you’d like to support me by purchasing this song for as low as $1 it would truly mean a lot to me: Shame on You via Bandcamp
