singer-songwriter • Guitar • Keys • Originals & covers
Hey y'all!
Welcome!
I’m a solo musician and songwriter based in the Texas Hill Country, performing on acoustic guitar and keys.
Debut Album
September 18, 2026
14 original songs. One badass all-women band. A fair amount of heartbreak, a whole lot of Texas, and absolutely no dating advice.
Live Performances
My original music lives somewhere in the country/Americana world, with influences including Mary Chapin Carpenter, Terri Clark, and Miranda Lambert.
At live shows, I mix those originals with creatively re-arranged acoustic covers of rock, pop, country, and Americana favorites from across the decades. With a wide-ranging repertoire, I can tailor a show for everything from a listening room to a brewery, winery, restaurant, bar, or private event.
Support Melanie West's Music
Turns out songwriting is cheaper than therapy. Recording an album is not. While no actual cowboys were harmed in the making of my album, my savings account cannot make the same claim. If you're enjoying the music and would like to throw a few bucks in the virtual tip jar, I'll be ridiculously grateful.
