Paris born Céd Le Mélédo combines melancholy and joyous singing with Spanish guitar, harmonica and accordion. He sings in French, Spanish, Italian and English - Solo or with band Le Petit Combo |
Céd studied Spanish Guitar in Spain and USA and traveled extensively around the world to experience various musical traditions.
He settled in Melbourne in 1994. His dynamic Flamenco and Salsa-tinged, folk-Gipsy melodies has made him a popular and fine ambassador to Mediterranean music through his average 300 performances per year.
Céd feels as comfortable serenading around tables as performing shows on stage, solo or with band "Le Petit Combo "(céd Le Mélédo and friends)
His guided tour around Spanish romance and French sensibility, his fingerpicking and percussive drumming of the guitar make his performance a lively and colorful musical experience.
