Born in Cincinnati, Ohio, he has been at the heart of the black music scene since he started stealing hearts with his dancing aged five. He had a doo-wop group as a teenager, when Cincinnati was the hub of black music, and has worked with the likes of James Brown, BB King, The Isley Brothers, Little Stevie Wonder and many more. Right now Brown’s own single Love Stormy Weather is in the UK soul charts and is available on a 45 vinyl.

Movin’ Melvin Brown: Chuck Berry Lives! with The Rock’n’Roll Showband

Channeling the late, great Chuck Berry, Melvin has created a show that truly moves, even by his own high-octane standards.

The result is an amazing mix of classic songs – Sweet Little Sixteen, Memphis, C’est la Vie, Johnny B Goode and more – mixed with dance routines of the kind that have won Brown a faithful following worldwide.

Melvin says: “Chuck Berry changed music for ever. I grew up with his sounds all around me, he made a huge difference to my life and millions of others. If anyone deserves the title of King of Rock ’n’ Roll it’s him. This is a chance to have fun celebrating his music.”

An Edinburgh Fringe favourite in 2017, Brown is a flamboyant wizard of song and tap. A man and a show not to miss in Adelaide. NB: Bring your dancing shoes!
