Back to the top	Melanie Devaney Saturday September 26th 2009 7:00 PM "Melanie Devaney and her music are a warm spring wind after a long grueling Midwest winter where you breathe a sigh of relief that life still has some sweetness," says Denny Garcia, host of KGRR’s Midwest Music Makers radio program.
