Melissa Rebronja's affinity
for music began at the age of six. Spending most of her
early life singing in school choirs, her passion for vocal
expression and natural talent evolved into a deep-rooted and
full time commitment to her music career.
Born in Belgrade,
this Canadian Songstress spent most of her life in Toronto, with five years in Vancouver, BC in order to focus on her art. Melissa
Rebronja taught herself piano and
guitar, inspiring her to write. Since then she has been writing
prolifically and has developed a large body of work, culminating
into the creation of her debut album Embrace Yourself.
Melissa Rebronja: EMBRACE YOURSELF (released 2003)
Sincere, moving, and
heartfelt, expressing her life experiences
through song. A unique blend of former Yugoslavian
and Canadian culture, the album is
altogether organic, sometimes ethnic and inspirited with pop. A genre
she calls “Soulful Acoustic Pop - with Balkan influences”.
The music propels you to listen,
invites you to sing along, and incites a bodily groove.
Her version of "Wonderwall" has reached
the top 50 for most downloaded songs with CDBaby.
Her single "Beautiful" & her version of "Wonderwall"
are being aired on Canadian radio. Her video for song "Beautiful" was
featured on BRAVO. This album is available on iTunes and
