Melt the Band
Meet this groovy band with a distinct sound and style.
Melt is a New York City based band formed in 2017 with a sound that draws from an array of inspirations. Getting their start their senior year of high school, the band have survived through four years of college in different universities and states. They have a "shared love of soul and psychedelia, existential pop songs, and ethereal jam sessions” at their core.
Their first single, “Sour Candy,” skyrocketed up the charts, reaching #5 on Billboard’s US Viral 50 Chart. The band is a septet with Veronica Stewart-Frommer (Vocals), Eric Gabriel (Vocals, Keys), Marlo Shankweiler (Guitar), Josh Greenzeig (Drums), Coulou (Trumpet), Lucas Saur (Bass), and Nick Sare (Saxophone).
Melt released “Fade Into You” on September 16, 2022, an indie pop track with soft vocals and wailing electric guitar. The vocals from Gabriel and Stewart-Frommer are masterfully layered over a funky bass line and strong horns from Coulou and Sare.
Performing live is integral to the band and they love interacting with audiences and even workshopping songs on stage. While they are currently finishing up their fall tour with shows in Colorado and Florida, they have recorded each show to incorporate in their next record, which will also be their first full length album.
