Grand Prize Winner for MTV's "Steal The Spotlight" Contest, artist and composer Melinda Ortner has been been writing and performing all over the world, garnering over 1.5 million streams on Spotify. She recently was the co-recipient of a Gold award at the Loeries for "High On You", a short film of which she composed the music for.

Her songs can also be heard in Paramount Pictures' "American Pie: Book Of Love", "I Hate Valentine's Day", "My Mother The Monster" and "Gone With The River", the last two having been the theme songs and titles for the film. She recently collaborated with Grammy-winning producer Jimmy Harry and Rob Davis, who have written for Madonna, Pink, Kylie Minogue, and more.

Raised in Northern California, she is often L.A. based but a self-professed anglophile, having built a fan base in the U.K. She was nominated for an L.A. Music Award for Best Pop Artist, and was 1 of 4 finalists in Koffeehouse's Best Indie Artist Awards.

Melinda has also toured Japan, North America, and Europe, opening for Joe Jonas, Miguel, and Cobra Starship, performed at SXSW, Iceland Airwaves, and several U.K. festivals. She was voted Best Of Sundance Film Festival two years consecutively, while being chosen as 1 of 25 hand-picked songwriters to be part of the ASCAP Johnny Mercers songwriters week in Chicago. She recently penned her first big writing cut in the KPOP world for pop star Amanda's, "Hide And Seek", which hit major radio just this past fall 2019.

Always with a vision, Melinda has brought her sounds to the forefront of indie capabilities with her ground breaking upcoming unreleased videos shot in ice caves and glaciers "Ghost", and "I Wanna Be Ok", the title track to her self-released album.

 

Ganadora del gran premio del concurso "Steal The Spotlight" de MTV, la artista y compositora Melinda Ortner ha estado escribiendo y actuando por todo el mundo, y ha conseguido más de 1,5 millones de streams en Spotify. Recientemente ha recibido un premio de oro en los Loeries por "High On You", un cortometraje para el que ha compuesto la música.

Sus canciones también se pueden escuchar en "American Pie" de Paramount Pictures: Book Of Love", "I Hate Valentine's Day", "My Mother The Monster" y "Gone With The River", las dos últimas como temas y títulos de la película. Recientemente ha colaborado con el productor Jimmy Harry, ganador de un Grammy, y con Rob Davis, que ha escrito para Madonna, Pink y Kylie Minogue, entre otros.

Criada en el norte de California, suele estar afincada en Los Ángeles, pero es una anglófila confesa, ya que se ha hecho con una base de fans en el Reino Unido. Fue nominada al premio L.A. Music Award a la mejor artista pop, y fue una de las cuatro finalistas de los premios Koffeehouse a la mejor artista indie.

Melinda también ha realizado giras por Japón, Norteamérica y Europa, siendo telonera de Joe Jonas, Miguel y Cobra Starship, y ha actuado en SXSW, Iceland Airwaves y varios festivales del Reino Unido. Fue votada como la mejor del Festival de Sundance dos años consecutivos, y fue elegida como una de las 25 compositoras seleccionadas para formar parte de la semana de compositores de ASCAP Johnny Mercers en Chicago. Recientemente escribió su primer gran corte de escritura en el mundo KPOP para la estrella del pop Amanda, "Hide And Seek", que llegó a la radio principal justo este pasado otoño de 2019.

Siempre con una visión, Melinda ha llevado sus sonidos a la vanguardia de las capacidades indie con sus próximos y rompedores vídeos inéditos rodados en cuevas de hielo y glaciares "Ghost", y "I Wanna Be Ok", la canción que da título a su álbum autoeditado.
