MELA

Mela is a Nigerian soul artist, multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, producer, and music director. His music blends contemporary and traditional jazz with soul and Afrofusion, and he’s known for warm, emotive vocals, tight arrangements, and hands-on production that foregrounds live instrumentation.

He has songwriting and production credits on tracks such as “Smile on Me” and appears across streaming platforms and social channels as both an artist and a producer. Active in live performance circuits and music showcases, Mela is building a reputation as an emerging voice in Nigeria’s soul and jazz scene — equally comfortable leading a band as he is producing in the studio.
