About Melissa Etheridge:
Melissa Etheridge’s recording career began with the 1988 release of her critically-acclaimed eponymous RIAA double-platinum debut album.  For several years, Melissa’s popularity built around such memorable songs as “Bring Me Some Water” (from her debut), “No Souvenirs” (from Brave And Crazy) and “Ain't It Heavy” (from  Never Enough), for which she won her first Grammy for Best Female Rock Vocal.
Melissa hit her commercial and artistic stride with her fourth album, Yes I Am, featuring the massive hits “I’m the Only One” and “Come to My Window,” a searing song of longing that brought her second Best Female Rock Grammy.  The album went six times platinum and spent more than two and a half years on the album chart.  Her highest charting album to date, Your Little Secret (#6 on the Billboard Top 200), included the hit single, “I Want to Come Over.”  Her astounding success led Etheridge to receive the Songwriter of the Year honor at the ASCAP Pop Awards.  She has also been honored with a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
