Liz Melendez Band

"That chick who plays guitar..."
Her guitar playing has been compared to everyone from Carlos Santana to Stevie Ray Vaughan and her voice has been compared to everyone from Bonnie Raitt to Janis Joplin. After arriving on the music scene as a solo artist a few years ago, Liz has established herself as one of the most exciting and promising new artists on the music horizon.
Considered by many to be one of the top lead guitarists in the country, her live performances demonstrate her versatility, often paying homage to her influences as a highlight to her own clearly defined lead guitar and vocal style.
Herstory
Born and raised in the South Valley of Albuquerque, New Mexico Liz moved to Atlanta in the late 1990s to continue her burgeoning music career as a formidable guitarist, vocalist songwriter and performer.

As an independent recording and performing artist she has proven to be a passionate and driven individual; writing, arranging and producing her own releases and is an uncompromising advocate for her artistic creations and performing career. Read more...
