Mel Melton & The Wicked Mojos is a smokin' Zydeco/Cajun-flavored
blues band out of North Carolina. On what was originally intended
to be a brief visit to Lafayette, LA, Mel's visit there in the early '70s
turned out to be a life-changing experience. While down bayou-
way he met, played with, and forged lasting relationships with
Sonny Landreth and the Chenier's...Clifton, Cleveland and CJ.
After a long stint with Bayou Rhythm, Mel took time off from
the music rat-race to concentrate on a career as a chef
(another facet developed and sharpened from the
early Lafayette days). 1990 found him back in
North Carolina and introducing the world to
the first edition of The Wicked Mojos.
