Mister Melvin and Friends

Carried by a warm voice and a generous stage presence, he revisits the great standards with a highly personal interpretation, where singing blends effortlessly with scatting and instrumental imitation: saxophone, percussion, or guitar take turns becoming material for improvisation.

A regular in jazz clubs as well as on international stages, from Budapest to Dubai, Almaty, Tashkent, Saint Petersburg, or Tbilisi, Melvin above all cultivates a love for sharing and spontaneity.

Between swing, elegance, and improvisation, he offers a journey into the heart of vocal jazz, faithful to the spirit of the great crooners while bringing his own color.
