January 25, 2026Unforgettable Night — Our Dance Floor Was Packed All Night
The band was absolutely amazing. From the first song to the last, the dance floor was full all night long. They struck the perfect balance between jamming and playing all the songs everyone loves, so there was something for every guest. The energy never dipped, and people are still talking about how fun the music was. We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding band!

January 6, 2026..and a great time was had by all..
We hired Melo Green for the New Bedford 2025 Summer Sound Series, the only non-local act based on experiences previous performances. Despite being an unknown band at a "block party" gig catering to the local music scene, they won the crowd over with a combination of originals and crowd pleasing tunes that had people literally dancing in the streets. Recommended!

January 4, 2026Super soulful talent who draws a crowd!
I highly recommend Melo Green, with experience booking him three consecutive years for Providence Porchfest. First and foremost, Melo is an incredible artist and live musician: his original songs are ethereal, funky emerging soul hits. His talent is such that he beautifully covers icons like Prince and Steve Wonder, simultaneously respecting the original artists while adding a distinctively Melo twist.
Melo Green is an outstanding performer who draws in the crowd, cultivating great vibes and energy. Beyond his musicianship, Melo is a pleasure to work with: he’s professional, timely, and a clear communicator. Strongly recommended to book while he is available!

December 22, 2025Incredible musicality and easy to work with
We started booking Melo Green in 2024 to deliver performances with Sofar Sounds and since then we've had the pleasure of presenting him at seven shows across MA. We continue to book him because of his energetic performances, soulful lyrics and the powerful connection he forges with the audience. Our guests are consistently blown away by his sets and he remains a favorite among Sofar crew and fans alike. I can't recommend Melo Green enough!

About
"...Boston psychedelic soul man seemingly came out of nowhere when his impressive and powerful debut album Laminar Flow was released last month. " -Noah Schaffer Artfuse
Melo Green began with a book called Colorstrology. In search of a new artist name that resonated with his eclectic music and laid back persona, the horoscopic nature of the book's description of Melo’s march 10th birthdate was perfect:
“Kind”
“Deep”
“Talented”
“Wearing, meditating on, or surrounding yourself with Mellow Green helps you to stay grounded…”
"On new album 'Laminar Flow,' Worcester's Melo Green is definitely not standing still" - Meg Trogolo Worcester Magazine
Melo has appeared all over the New England music scene across nearly two decades with Kids On A Hill, The Umass Doo Wop Shop, The Frotations, The Velcro Soul, Freddy and The Yeti’s, and The C.O.M.P.
Melo’s debut album Laminar Flow is all about ease, love, living in the present moment and accepting that just because it looks like we’re frozen in time doesn’t mean we’re not moving through life gracefully.
