When Melissa Brady steps on stage to sing or when she puts a pen to paper to write a song, when she stands in front of a classroom of music students and when she walks in her kitchen filled with family, the energy of the room rises from the enthusiasm she connects with the talents given her by God.Melissa’s early musical/spiritual development came from a decade of traveling with her mother and father in evangelistic ministry – which found her playing the piano and singing in a different church every week.
Melissa’s writing led to songs recorded by top groups and soloists which include the Booth Brothers, Ivan Parker, the Ruppes, the Whisnants, and the Shulers. Several of her songs have become top ten songs on the gospel music charts. Melissa is married to Jim Brady of a camp favourite - The Booth Brother.
