Fine and Mellow

With their contagious swing, undeniable synergy and raw renditions of ballads lost in time, The Louise Balkwill Group breathe new life into some of The Great American Songbook's hidden gems and sentimental favourites.

Louise Balkwill (voice) and Stefan Melovski (guitar) began their musical companionship in 2013 through a shared love of artists such as Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington and Carmen McRae. They have since won the hearts of audiences from London to New York with their joint passion for beautiful songs, raucous blues and irresistible swing. 

Recorded on the 25th May 2018 by Robin Harris.
