You may visit the café’s website at www.mundoastoria.com About Melissa: Puerto Rican singer and songwriter Melissa Otero has made waves in the music scene with her captivating lyrics and haunting voice. Since the age of 5, Melissa has been working towards her career as a professional recording artist studying everything from Bach, Mozart and Beethoven to the likes of contemporary artists such as Tori Amos, Sarah McLachlan and Elton John. Combining both Classical and Contemporary styles, Melissa engages her audience with her unique sound and very personal experiences. As Melissa describes, her goal is to let her audience know that they are "not alone". With her debut album "My Spirit", Melissa sings about her hardships during depression, which ultimately lead her to Christianity. Her songs such as "10:40pm" and "Free" were both written during the time of her depression and realized she could inspire other people who are going through the same thing and so created this album in almost chronological order of how it all happened. If you listen closely, you'll see how she went from being in love, to depression to ultimate redemption. Her song “My First Everything” was officially released in the summer of 2006 as an EP and went on to become #1 on Hot97.net (Portland, OR) for two consecutive weeks. It received much attention and radio airplay in Oregon, Hawaii, Colombia, Argentina, Mexico and New York City. It is currently available online through iTunes, Amazon, Rhapsody and Napster.

More information regarding this company will be posted soon. End
