"Melissa's next project is setting up to be a very fun and realistic look at who she is as a person, and we couldn't be more excited about that," said Silverado Records CEO Scott Thomas. "The more you get to know her, the more you want to hang out with her and hear what she's working on musically. Our team is very excited to be a part of growing her fan base and sharing some great Country music from her," he said.

On signing with Silverado Records, Melissa said "I am so excited to join the Silverado Records family! It is a dream come true to have found a place where I can be myself and allow my music to reflect who I really am." "They're an amazing team of people who believe in me. Working together, I can't wait to see what the future holds," she added.
