Quick Glance: Folk Singer Melanie, Woodstock Performer, Dies at 76

Chart-topping folk singer Melanie, known for 'Brand New Key' and 'Lay Down (Candles in the Rain)', has passed away.

Born on Feb. 3, 1947 in Astoria, New York, Melanie was influenced by the folk scene and the music of Edith Piaf, Kurt & Weill, Blossom Dearie, and her mother Polly, a jazz singer.

Less than a year after releasing her 1968 debut album, Melanie performed at Woodstock in front of hundreds of thousands of people.

Her Woodstock performance soon inspired Melanie's Top 10 hit 'Lay Down (Candles in the Rain)', recorded with the Edwin Hawkins Singers.
