Melanie Pierce with Joey Viola

Melanie Pierce is a multi-instrumentalist, composer and producer. She is driven to create music that will capture the hearts of masses, all the while remaining unapologetic about who she is. Her alt pop sound blends elements of Pop and Americana, and her lyrical content examines traditional themes of love, lust, angst and heartbreak, while also getting vulnerable about anxiety, self-doubt, and insecurity. As a young, pop artist, Pierce is an embodiment of self-assurance and her purpose in making music is to create a ripple effect.

Joey Viola grew up and currently resides in a small section of Columbus, Ohio (Clintonville and is the lead singer of Magnolia. His solo works stem from his life experience in themes that people can relate to. Love and loss, growth, the socio-political climate. There’s even some bullshit about throwing a stone or two. Thanks for the listen. - Joey
