Melodic began in August of 2006 with Tad "Top Cat" Clark on Guitar, Mike "Lox" Phillips on Bass and Lead vocals, and Dave "Chop" Chopcinski on Drums. Within a couple jam sessions, we had fairly promising material written, and had already created a friendship. By the following spring we had our first gig at The Red Parrot in Lorain, OH, and we'd begun recording our own music.Our first CD, "Number 1", was self-recorded, however not to the level of quality that we had anticipated. Therefore we tried playing out more frequently, at different places, and writing more material. When it came time to go back to the drawing board for recording, we went to Windmill Recording Studio in Wellington, OH. We were looking for something a little more professional.This leads us to our first "real" CD titled "In the Blink of an Eye", which had eleven tracks and sounded pretty good. This CD was released at our performance on July 4th in Wellington in 2008. The CD included mostly songs from the "Number 1" CD, however newer material was added. The one song from the very beginning few jam sessions that we still regularly play is "Real Work of Art". It was become a band favorite, fan favorite, and it always ends up as a finisher for our rockin' set.We have been playing out on a regular basis over the last year. We've shared the stage with L.A. Guns, Souls of We (George Lynch from Dokken & Lynch Mob), Bang Tango, Swirl, Panama (VH tribute), Madison Crawl, The Billy Morris Band, and many other great bands. We always have a great time sharing the stage with D'Molls (our 80's buddies).We are continuously writing new and better material. We will be going into the studio in the near future to record what will hopefully be our first "BIG" CD. This will feature all of our new and favorite material. Continue to look for MELODIC in bars and clubs around you. Hope to see each and every one of you rockin with us soon!
