The past few weeks have been very exciting for us... Melissa was honored with a
Delaware Music Award for "Best Singer/Songwriter." Then, we opened for Old
School Freight Train at the Baby Grand (which totally ROCKED! What a great
night!) We couldn't have accomplished these great things without the support of
our fans, family & friends, so thank you!!!

Now, we are very honored to be nominated for Out & About Magazine's Music
Awards! We are up for awards in THREE categories!! Melissa Cox for Best
Frontwoman, Mythica for Best Acoustic/Roots Act, and our latest CD Vicarious
for Best Recording!

We were up for some awards last year but didn't quite get the votes. So we are
asking everyone to please help us win this year by voting online at http://

St. Patrick's Day has come and gone, and so has your hangover.  But if you live
in the D.C. or Southern MD areas and you're still itchin' for some Irish folk
rock music, come catch me (Melissa) this Thursday and Friday!

Thursday, I will be performing at Artmosphere Digital Cafe just outside D.C.
The cafe just celebrated their one year anniversary, but in that short time
period, it has become one of the coolest places to hang out in the D.C. metro
area!  Then on Friday, I'm headed south to California (not the state...the town
in Maryland!) for a performance at the legendary coffee roastery The Coffee
Quarter!  We rarely perform in the D.C. area, so if you live nearby, we hope
you will come to a show!

St. Patrick's Day is upon us, and while the day conjures up images of green
shamrocks and Guinness overflowing from the glass, it's also a day to remember
Mr. Saint Patrick. While little is known about him and his life, we do know
that St. Patrick was enslaved, and after his release, he became a missionary in
Ireland, helping those in need.

So in the spirit of St. Patrick and his legacy of helping others, we are
donating part of our CDs sales to the Girl Scouts and the Operation Taste of
Home program!

Here's how it works -- for every "Vicarious" CD purchased between now and St.
Patrick's Day (3/17), we will donate $3.50 to the Operation Taste of Home
program, which sends boxes of Girl Scout cookies overseas to soldiers stationed

We're BACK!  After a long winter slumber, Mythica is back and better than ever,
with an amazing new drummer Tim Kelly (Apex Watson, Montana Wildaxe), brand
spankin' new songs, and a fabulous new wardrobe, compliments of Project Runway
(haha we wish!)

For the next month, we will playing a COFFEE HOUSE TOUR ACROSS THE TRI-STATE
AREA!  Grab a great cup o' joe and come hear Melissa perform solo and with
Mythica!!  We rarely get down to the Baltimore and D.C. areas, so if you live
in those areas, we hope to see you there!

Some cool news... I have been nominated for a Homey Award! "What the heck is a
Homey Award?" you may be asking. A Homey is the very coveted award of WSTW's

night from 9-11pm on 93.7FM. It's THE PLACE to find out about the best up and

Long time no email ;) We hope you had a relaxing holiday season and you are
enjoying 2008 so far!

We have a little favor to ask of you, if you don't mind taking a few minutes to
cast a vote or two. The 2008 ShamrockFest in Washington D.C. is accepting votes
for which band YOU want to see perform at the 2008 festival. We want to show
the festival promoters that our fans want us to come play at the festival (and
with a few non-Celtic bands and absolutely NO female acts in the current
lineup, I think we need to change that, don't you? So do we!) The more votes
you send, the greater chance we have of getting booked at this year's or next
year's festival.

Please take a few minutes and vote for Mythica with as many email addresses as
