Fearless Singer

Watch Me Sing

G’day, I’m Mel Lathouras!
I’m a
Soul-Jazz Singer, Songwriter, and
Course Creator and Podcaster for
Femme musicians.

I belt jazz, soul, and blues, write self-love anthems, and craft musical experiences that are equal parts electrifying, healing, and laugh-til-you-snort funny.

You’ll also find me co-fronting Girl From Greece with my best mate Katerini — two cusp-y Gen X-Millennials serving Hellenic bangers with a non-good girl, jazzy twist.

At 40, I declared it my unapologetic era.

Self-love is my rebellion. My singing is an extension of that.

When I’m not on stage as Little Mel (named after my inner child — because everything I do is for her), I’m mentoring the next wave of femme artists through Femme Music Club — a creative home for vocal empowerment, mindset work, and taking up space (with sequins and Mae West–level confidence, of course).

I am also the producer of
Femme Jazz - a show celebrating female identifying jazz artists.
