Fuller penned her first song at age 12 and earned her first cut as a sophomore in college. A record deal immediately followed and Fuller spent most her early career opening for rock and country legends ZZ Top, Diamond Rio and Lonestar.

“Whakaio Taahi and I have written together for years,” said Third and Verse Founder David Hodges. “His instincts for production and melody are always fresh and exciting. I couldn’t be happier having him on the Third and Verse roster. Melissa Fuller is one of my favorite collaborators in Nashville. Her ability to create original, authentic music with any artist in any genre is remarkable. Shelby and I can’t wait to hear what comes of her being part of the Third and Verse team.”
