Her music is still great but with no impact like I turn to you but still her albums are amazing and I'm happy she's not taking a long break this time

Would Mel's solo music career net her much income. Her last few releases haven't really taking off for her and her touring is mainly small venues. Had she not her huge wealth from the Spice Girls and likely money from Norther Star era which was huge would she have the money to keep sustaining her solo music career.

She will still make money from touring , pa’s and festivals.
Also she has written her and spice material so royalties would be decent for her . |

Yeah, I highly doubt she actually makes money off doing music as much as she makes from everything around the music. I guess as long as she doesn't go crazy with expensive producers and such she might turn a profit, but not on music alone.

No she certainly does not turn a profit on music alone. I think she was breaking even originally with music releases in Europe combined with touring but she has mentioned how she actually made a loss with The Sea, so I'm guessing it will be the same with Version of me.
I'm sure she makes up for that with all her side projects though, so things like judging on Superstar and Asia's Got Talent will have boosted her income, Blood Brothers and Jesus Christ Superstar. Radio slot on BBC radio 2, touring with Jools Holland, festivals, TV slots, interviews in magazines... she is high profile enough off the back of the Spice Girls to keep making money. She also does some private and corporate gigs which she charges £160,000 per hour for, (I contacted her booking company to find out how much to book her for my wedding for a laugh lol)... |

Yes, i had thought her revenue would be mainly earned from outside her solo music directly.
I welcome she has stayed with it, that is the joy of been in the financial position she is. That said, Mel has done very well to keep her name out there and she always manages to crop up here there and everywhere to keep her name on the scene. |

£160,000 PER HOUR
 pretty good for a musician who doesnt sell more than 10,000 copies of her albums on average

out of interest, what are the sales for her albums?
im sure she still probably earns around 100k per year in Spice royalties which is enough to keep anybody comfortable - especially if you dont have a mortgage to pay |

Coming up to 3 years of marriage and 10 years being together  She actually did a Channel 4 show where you could write in and ask for something for Melanie to do with you, around the time I was getting married. My dad wrote in and asked for her to play at my wedding bless him, I found out in the wedding speeches... along with the bitter blow it was never replied to

I also sell more of Tommie's Really Healthy Shampoo Poo (It's Really Poo)™ than Mel's latest album, but that's to be expected.

Melanie C is doing some gigs for the boisdale restaurant group.
She is playing four gigs at the end of May. It says she will be playing her greatest hits as well as songs from her forthcoming new album . I purchased for 25th May. Tickets range from £87-175 pound. This includes a three course meal . You can buy tickets for just the gig too. I think they start from £30. The gigs are in Canary Wharf . This post has been edited by vibe: Mar 13 2018, 05:51 PM |

Full details at: https://www1.boisdale.co.uk/MusicDetails/ta...28/Default.aspx QUOTE(Boisdale) After conquering the world with the Spice Girls, Melanie Chisholm has enjoyed a huge solo career with a string of perfect pop singles including I Turn To You, Never Be The Same Again and When You’re Gone. Now entering an exciting new phase of her career, we are proud to announce that Melanie C will be playing a run of five intimate shows which will undoubtedly be one of the most hotly-anticipated events in Boisdale’s illustrious history. She will perform an intimate unplugged set with her incredible band singing her greatest hits from her solo material as well as Spice Girl favourites, in addition to experimenting with classic covers and a new collection of songs she has written for her forthcoming and imminent album. Rebecca Ferguson did there a similar residency just a couple of months ago: https://www1.boisdale.co.uk/ProductDetail/t...00/Default.aspx |
