Melissa Mary Ahern is a Brooklyn based singer-songwriter who first began generating buzz last Christmas surrounding her feature on the release of Sufjan Steven’s 2007 rarity “Lonely Man of Winter” out on vinyl 12/7 via Asthmatic Kitty. Though the artist has been frequenting the New York and Berlin music scene since 2011 this is her first formal, solo release. “Next To You” and “World of Wonder” are the first singles off of Ahern’s 2018 collaboration with Doveman — the producer behind albums by Sufjan Stevens, St. Vincent, Rhye, Norah Jones and many more. She is currently working to release new music by the summer 2019, writing daily and performing locally throughout NYC.
