Newsjoint / Mel Flannery Trucking Co.

Show Description

Combining Hip Hop, Brazilian, and pop, Italian musicians Greta Panetteri, Michael LaValle and Andrea Sammartino have tapped into resources that show no boundaries. Disenchanted by current trends in popular music, their purpose has been to move contemporary music in a new direction. Listen carefully to how this extraordinary group of talented musicians blends musical flavors from around the world into a feast for the ears. Compositions so rich can only be driven by passion, love and talent.

Mel Flannery Trucking Co.'s eclectic yet cohesive sound is shaking the very foundation of New York's jazz and independent scenes. The organic sound that comes from this group of finely trained musicians lends itself generously to Mel's tear-your-heart-in-half ballads as well as her sexy and clever arrangements of underappreciated pop/rock songs. With every note she sings and song she writes, Mel reminds us she is a force to be reckoned with. This is a band that appeals to punk rockers and jazz aficionados alike.
