Melissa Manchester

The Official YouTube account of Melissa Manchester. Singer-songwriter Melissa Manchester’s career is remarkable not only for its longevity and accomplishments, but for its versatility. Following her stint as a founding member of Bette Midler’s Harlettes, Manchester’s tremendously successful solo career brought her critical and commercial acclaim. She has recorded twentyone albums across her career, releasing her most recent album, The Fellas. I’ve always wanted to to pay tribute to some of the equally great male singers – Frank, Tony, Nat, Johnny and several others. So, here it is – at long last – through a gift made possible by Dean Bob Slack of Citrus College and their fantastic Blue Note Orchestra. With The Fellas, Melissa celebrates not only 40 years as a GRAMMY-winning performer and songwriter, but a renewed independence and vitality. The album features special guest Barry Manilow.
