Roll up, roll up! Introducing Australian, pop singer Mel Jade.
Mel Jade wrote her first song in the bathtub at the age of three called \'I never thought a seahorse could drown\'.
“It was a very tragic song” she laughs, but Mel Jade\'s love of singing and songwriting didn\'t stop there.
Mel Jade stepped onto the scene with her track \'Aliens\' which was remixed and released by the Pretty Boys of Saint Tropez in Europe. The song hit the charts after top DJ Armin Van Buuren picked it up and played it on his radio segment in Holland.
Mel Jade has now embarked on her first solo project which is 100% Mel, from writing the lyrics all the way to editing the music videos.
“It\'s both scary and exciting to have started this project completely on my own. But the songs are all about taking chances, pushing boundaries and doing exactly what you want to do, so that\'s what I\'m doing.”
Excitingly, the home made video Mel Jade uploaded for her song \'We Could Make a Movie\' hit over a million views on YouTube in a matter of weeks.
Mel Jade describes her style as pop infused with a million other influences as she listens to everything from rock to blues to classical to dirrty electro.
“I mash everything I like together” Mel Jade says, and this cocktail of influences which she has fused and injected with her own poetic lyrics that speak of risk, fantasy, feeling alive and retro romance means the singer has emerged with her own brand of pop.
Though she\'s dripping with candy, Mel Jade also has something very raw and real about her. She is both recklessly fun and thoughtfully poetic, girl-next-door and glamorous, naughty and sweet, untouchable and approachable (she always replies to all her followers on Facebook and Twitter).
Mel Jade is a rocket waiting to launch.
“I bought a huge bag of glitter off eBay, so I\'m pretty sure I\'m ready to go.”
So there you are, she\'s armed herself with songs and sparkles, and wants YOU on her team.
