What is Country music? For Melissa Ratley, that’s an easy question.  It’s songwriting and singing. It’s simply playing for friends and family, or performing in front of a crowd, no matter the size or setting.  Once you hear Melissa’s voice for the first time, you’re instantly reminded of neotraditional voices like Reba and Wynonna Judd, along with Trisha Yearwood, Patty Loveless, and Kathy Mattea, and you can hear the songwriting influence of Mary Chapin Carpenter and Deana Carter in her songs.
