Sample Reviews of Mell's Music:

 

"The old adage 'smooth jazz' certainly sums up Mellani Day's lagest release, 'Mostly True'.  This CD is great listening from start to finish!  Mellani's powerful voice combined with highly talented musicians including Eric Gunnison and The Dazed Band create an amazing sound.  'Mostly True' is a must have for the collections of not only jazz fans but for everyone who loves great music."                                                                                                                                  Georgia Moncrief, GoGirlsMusic.com

 

 

Mellani Day and her Music will seep into your Soul like a good slow wine, and it is, too.  This is great slow sensual Blues rock and Listening to her and that Voice just feels right.  From Radio Mike's show, Aug. 23, 2005                     (http://thefeveredbrainofradiomike.com/comments.php?id=952_0_1_0_C)

 

 

 

The mere fact this is a debut EP is enough to make you wonder, Mellani Day has more talent than some seasoned professionals.  Her songwriting has a solid air that generates a smooth flow ....  The vocals are sultry and sexy....  The light sounds are a blend of smooth jazz and blues that captures your attention from the start.

The elegance of style and grace prove that Mellani Day is in the game to stay, and she should have no trouble whatever gathering a following.                                                                             Read the full review at: www.rikksrevuew.com/EZlisten.htm

 

 

"Impressive jazz and blues fronted by a strong vocalist with both sex appeal and powerful delivery.  The pianos and guitars make up the bulk instrumental sound, with screaming solos and toe tapping interludes backed by the ever-present sway of the light brush of drumming.  The singer takes front stage and keeps the attention focused right there.  Guess that's why her name is on the cover of the recording."                                                                                                           Review in  www.neo-zine.com

 

Editor's Pick!  "Damn this is a debut release?  Surely you jest I think to myself as this sounds like the work of a seasoned jazz artist of no less than 20 years.  Mellani's sultry voice flows over the jazzy blues rock and Eric Gunnison's lush piano.  Lyrically she tells us intimate tales of what's on her mind the night she penned them...."                                  J-Sin, Editor at Smother.net

 

 

"Mellani Day is a gifted vocalist with obvious talent...."                                                         Alain Jezbloski, FreshNewTunes.com
