Melomane

Melomane is a New York City based rock band formed in 1999 by Pierre de Gaillande, formerly of the bands Morning Glories and Creedle. Melomane has three albums; Resolvo, Solresol, and Glaciers. Melomane was invited to play in Moscow and St. Petersburg, Russia, in September 2006 by the US Embassy in Russia to support the Russian release of their third album Glaciers, on the Russian record label Soyuz Music. They opened for Wilco at the 930 Club in Washington DC on October 19, 2006. Melomane's music has been used in television shows "Road Rules," "Daria," and "The Osbournes," as well as in the feature documentary "Dr. Bronner's Magic Soapbox" directed by Sara Lamm. Members of Melomane include Quentin Jennings, Daria Klotz, Kenny Savelson, and Frank Heer.

The term melomane (see melomania) is also current in Franglais and French, loosely translated as 'music-lover'.
