Melina Malone

A Greek-Irish R&B queen in the making, this singer emanates unapologetic femininity, evident in her stellar 2023 debut album Aphrodite. Alongside a talented production team, she crafted a project that melded sweeping Mediterranean sounds with meticulous modern production. Combined with spine-tingling, Winehouse-style vocals, it resulted in one of the year’s freshest sounding LPs. Equally at home on stage as she is in the studio, Malone can be seen performing as part of the immensely talented collective, Irish Women In Harmony.

Hear: ‘Anywhere’.
