The Melbourne, Florida based band, Just Blue is Melissa Barelmann (Vocals) & Chad Fagg (Guitars, Vocals). Drawn together by a love of simple songs that come from personal places, they started playing together in February of 2006, playing cover songs in local coffeehouses but always wanted more. They needed to write, and write they did. Composing over 20 songs in a few months and then starting to record right away to capture the essence and soul of their fledgling creations. The results of those recording sessions are their debut CD, Below The Damage.
A metal guitarist and a karaoke singer make for an odd match but their acoustic singer/songwriter style fits them perfectly. Combining Melissa's soothing Natalie Merchant-esque vocals over the tapestry of Chad's acoustic guitar proved to be a match made in... well, someplace. Besides singing in karaoke bars and her car with the top down, this is Melissa's first foray into writing and performing her own music. Chad comes from a long line of rock and metal bands to find his true home, sitting behind an acoustic guitar.
Enjoy the debut CD from this acoustic coffeehouse duo, filled with songs about love, loss and a little bit of hope.
