About Me

About me... ..my name means peaceful star in Swahili. Born in Germany (Munchen), raised around the world, now in LA, via New York.

I speak a handfull of languages (feel free to leave comments in Italian, French, German, or whatever suits your fancy)...I love to laugh! I LOVE good food, though I'm a health nut..oh - I REALLY love the sunshine!! ( and playing in it, dancing in it, napping in it). what else?,,,what else?

Music is my blood, expression is my breath. Sometimes expression is paint, or clay, or dance, or writing...or becoming someone else (acting), but most often SONG (and song-WRITING too!). By the way - all lyrics to my songs are available on my website (www.amanamelome.com)..if you'd like to start singing along (smile). Everyone in my family is an artist - beautifully inspiring people, I might add - and so it is.

Feel free to read a long..more serious bio on my website: www.amanamelome.com, oh..and my debut CD is available on CDBABY.com!!! (big smile)
