Melissa Welke has been singing and writing songs for 20 years. She bought her first used guitar after graduating from nursing school and took it on the road as a traveling nurse. “I started writing music just by chance through human experiences as a Registered Nurse,” said Welke.
She said she aims to project a positive attitude with her songs. The winter resident paired up with John Stay of Sanibel and his guitar for her Gulf Coast Music performance. While she’s in town, they perform at the Lakes Park Farmer’s Market every other Friday.
