Melanie Safka, known mononymously as Melanie, was an American singer-songwriter whose acoustic folk music, with its distinctive vocal style and introspective lyrics, found a cult following in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Though she had achieved some success with earlier singles, she was still building her career at the time of "Leftover Wine," aiming to translate her bohemian image and Laurel Canyon sound to a wider audience.
