Burnos delivers another fully adrenalized song in Warship. It is a perfect display of PURE HARD ROCK which we need more of, no fluff, no core, just down and dirty real rock and roll.  We really can’t wait for their album and once again Melissa has left us begging for more. She has really come on strong to the music scene and just amazes me with her talent. So make sure to head over to Itunes here and pick up the new song! They have already started playing it on XM Sirius Octane channel and now you can request your local radio station to start playing Warship.

Today is our 2nd Day of 12 Days of Bands You Have to Know and I have a great treat for you. How about the awesome music of Burnos which delivers kick ass rock with their new song, “Octane”.

Burnos is Melissa Burnos on Vocals, Eric Friedman (Creed, Tremonti, Projected) on Guitars, Garrett Whitlock (Tremonti) on Drums and Brian Weaver on Bass.  I have been listening to them on XM Sirius Octane channel and everytime they come on, I can’t help but be fully adrenalized by their high energy octane driven (pun intened, ha) rock. Melissa delivers strong yet clean vocals that take a hold of you. Garrett gives us precision fueled drumming, Brian is a bad ass on bass and you can’t help but love Eric as he shreds on his solo.  Their song has us wanting more and more!

Review of Melissa Burnos' Music on Ourstage.com (MTV Partner)

"“NME” (or, “enemy”) is a sugary shot of hard rock that places Burnos’s muscular voice center stage. She’s a confident performer wielding a potent mix of aggression and seduction." -Kate B., Ourstage.com

Band of the Hour: Melissa Burnos
by FredGMiami / Miami.com

By Rayme Samuels

A former NFL cheerleader turned rocker, Melissa Burnos is an unexpected success on the Miami music scene. A few years ago Maurice Gibb, a good friend and member of legendary group The Bee Gees, encouraged Burnos to turn her pages of dark poetry in song. A natural entertainer, her inherent rock sensibilities come alive on any stage as she loses herself in the music.

11-15-06 - Blue Doodle Magazine

The clock read 3:57am and for some reason I couldn't sleep. Something was haunting me- the name "Melissa Burnos" kept cycling in my mind. Who is this nameless face? Moments later I sought to answer that very question. Joan Jett- Eat yer heart out! Melissa Burnos is an emerging singer songwriter out of the greater South Florida area. After graduating with her Bachelors in English, Melissa spent time as a Miami Dolphins cheerleader and currently is writing Rock and Roll love songs. In this day and age it is rare to have an educated emerging pop star. Melissa, through wit, intelligence, and a strong attitude breaks the mold with her musical vigor. Melissa Burnos is a prioritized, goal setter who is on her way to success and stardom. Melissa Burnos's music makes Mick Jagger clutch his heart and sends tears into the eyes of ravaging Rock and Rollers. For Melissa, mosh-pits become emotional melting pots reminiscent of a kumbaya circle and head banging is just another way to get over a "bad break up". Melissa enamors her fans with her talent, beauty, and down-to-earth look at the softer side of rock and roll. For more information you can visit her homepage at: http://www.myspace.com/melissaburnos
