New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Melody Federer has released her new single "
This Town" along with official music video. Ahead of the release, Atwood Magazine exclusively premiered the video and raved about the song saying "Federer spends time bouncing back from electric guitars to soaring melodies as she analyzes and takes apart what it feels like to be stuck in a place or feeling you don't know how to escape. The track pulls off an incredible alternative-rock vibe that proves Federer bold, daring, and creatively dangerous."
Earlier this year, "Bridges," a collaborative effort by Federer and legendary Burt Bacharach was released and gained high praise from the likes of American Songwriter, Billboard and Forbes.
Coming up later this month, Federer will perform at SXSW as an official artist. Federer expects to release her sophomore full-length album later in 2020.

A noted solo artist as well as an accomplished writer for various musicians, her style is genre agnostic, and her stage presence is effortlessly versatile.

Kelly Rowland, traditional folk-rock tunes for Jacob Whitesides, and crafted alongside titans of the jazz world like

Daniel Tashian and GRAMMY Nominees Scott Chesak, Billy Mann, Chad Carlson, and Roget Chahayed.
Coming off recent successes with collaborators Plastik Funk, Telykast, and SAMATHA, Federer has been preparing new solo material as a follow up to her 2017 debut album Where The Dogwoods Bloom.

Heaven Today?" for a series dubbed the #SinglesClub.
