I knew there was something familiar about her name.
That's what got me to stop: the feeling that I'd heard Melissa
Errico's name before. But when I listened to the samples of her
singing on the iTMS the mystery only deepened. A few seconds of
And
So It Goes told me that she's from the theater; there's a
clarity and a precision to her delivery, a lack of artifice but no
lack of warmth. So I went looking for her bio, to confirm my
suspicion and to figure out why I knew her name.
Turns out I was right about her theatrical work, although I haven't
seen any of her plays. But I did recognize a couple of her TV guest
shots: as Lucie Arnaz's daughter in an episode of Law &
Order and the cheating ex-wife of the title character in
Ed. Neither one tells me much about her ability to act. But
of her singing I have no doubts.
