Rock music, in its essence, is bold self-expression. In this genre, artists portray themselves through grit, heavy sounds, and strong emotions. Rage, pain, and heartbreaks are easily transformed into rock bass and rhythms. Leaning heavily into expressiveness in her music is Melissa Etheridge, who is known for her confessionals in her lyrics. She delivers this with raspiness and vigor, which makes for potent tunes well-loved by many rock enthusiasts. Since the 80s, she has stunned with her classic and heartland rock.
The rockstar has a long list of albums in her discography. The one that first brought her mainstream attention was "Yes I Am." Being her fourth album, she already understood the ins and outs of the music industry. The album became a huge success when it came out in 1993. The ten songs in its track were reflections of her finally showing the world her true identity. Songs like "I'm the Only One" and "Come to My Window" became among the biggest records of the year. Multiple platinum certifications also stacked up well into 1994. This opened the doors for her next albums to perform well in the charts.
As the 2000s came, she shifted her sound to accommodate a changing taste among the audience. "Skin" continues the tradition of her being at the top as it peaked at the top ten of Billboard 200. This album is also one of those she wrote, bearing to the world her experiences — this time, a divorce from a longtime partner. She would then re-emerge in 2007 with "The Awakening." The album's success was thanks to the momentum brought forth by the single "I Need to Wake Up." Etheridge recorded this song for a nature documentary. The impact of the documentary led to her bagging the Academy Award for Best Original Song that year.
The 2010s saw the powerhouse rockstar branching out into more genres of music. She began to dabble in R&B. "Memphis Rock and Soul" gave her the chance to sing Soul. The album is a compilation of covers from the trailblazers of the Soul and rock scene.
Etheridge will be on her "I'm Not Broken" tour this year. Jewel, the "You Were Meant For Me" hitmaker, will join her on this tour. For those who were hooked on her light and gentle 90s music, this is going to be a treat for you.
