Melvoin and Coleman were awarded with an Emmy for Outstanding Original Main Title in 2010 for their theme to Nurse Jackie. They also technically share the honor of winners of a Grammy and Oscar for being part of The Revolution, as Purple Rain won two Grammys, and the Oscar for Best Original Score.
In April 2009, Melvoin gave an interview with Out magazine that, for the first time, publicly revealed that she is a lesbian and discussed her past romantic relationship with Lisa Coleman, who is still her musical partner. She was in a longterm relationship with film director Lisa Cholodenko. They share a son, Calder, to whom Cholodenko gave birth by way of an anonymous sperm donor.

In September 2008, they announced that they would release an album consisting entirely of the score from Heroes, entitled Heroes: Original Score.

Shortly after the completion of Prince and The Revolution's 1986 album Parade, Coleman and Melvoin left the Revolution and started their own duo, Wendy & Lisa, also known as Girl Brothers.
Melvoin met Prince in 1983, one night when she was practicing guitar in Lisa Coleman's room. A few days later, when guitarist Dez Dickerson didn't show up at soundcheck, Prince asked her to play his guitar; that same night, Prince invited her to join the band. Melvoin's debut show with The Revolution was a benefit concert for the Minnesota Dance Theatre at the First Avenue nightclub in Minneapolis on August 3, 1983. This concert was recorded and some of the tracks ended up on Purple Rain, Prince's next record, most notably the title track. Melvoin was 19 at that time.
