Melinda Sullivan teaches Alex Lilly to tap in the new video for "Melinda"
PREMIERE
Today, Melinda is in the house (to teach Alex Lilly how to tap)!
Alex had this cool side hustle during the early pandy where she took commissions to write what she calls "jingles for humans" (and even some pets). She says, "I have a hetero-girl crush on the supremely talented and unique Melinda Sullivan. Melinda's man asked me to write a jingle for her.
"Her jingle is a true story! We appeared in a music video together, pretended to kiss, and... oh, those lips! We also played at The Gardenia. The song is a play-by-play! I was delighted when she agreed to give me a tap lesson for the 'Melinda' video."
"Melinda" also features saxophone by James King from Fitz and the Tantrums, drums by Barbara Gruska from Belle Brigade, and bass by Gabe Noel. The new Alex Lilly album ππ¦π±π¦π΅πͺπ΅πͺπ°π― ππ΄ π ππͺπ― is out October 21 on Release Me Records.
