About this Event
“Melon Jelly makes Southern swampy blues with soul-searching electric groovin’ vibes in songs that ask for absolution, with hat in hand, and proclaim love out loud.”
- Jason Airy, Americana Highways
Melon Jelly dishes out a foot stompin’ musical gumbo of funky grooves, blues, and retro rock served piping hot from Southeast Texas! Winners of the 2024 Houston Blues Challenge and quarterfinalists at the 2025 International Blues Challenge in Memphis, Melon Jelly features Stephen Droddy on drums, Jason McCollum on bass, and Mark "Nessie" Nesmith on guitars and vocals. Their debut CD “The Road to Memphis” dropped February 7th, 2025, claiming the #15 slot on the Billboard Magazine Blues Albums Chart.
