About melody & grit

Hi, my name is Brady, and Melody & Grit is a blog where I share my lifestyle as a classical singer, musicologist, and stage director. You’ll find classical music guides, classic film guides, life advice, beauty, vintage fashion, and all things in between. Click here for a post on exactly how the blog got its name.

Because I travel solo a great deal, I have the opportunity to share some of that with you. I spend my time blogging, singing (mostly classical music and opera—although I do perform a good bit of cabaret!), making coffee as a barista, and teaching private voice lessons. I’m also a photographer, and you can book me!

Feel free to email me with any questions you may have; I always aim to be available to readers, and I love hearing your unique perspectives! I love fielding classic film, opera, and vintage clothing, and coffee questions. I’m also always able to give recommendations on places I visit if you don’t find what you’re looking for here on the blog.

P.S. I am Pittsburgh-based, so a lot of my “things to do” content will center around my city!
