Mélissa Laveaux (born January 1985 in Montreal, Quebec) is an Ottawa musician of Haitian descent signed to NoFormat records (others on the roster include Gonzales and Kouyate-Neerman). She is a singer-songwriter, guitarist, and vocalist who plays music described as a mix of roots, folk, and blues using her signature percussive finger-style guitar and soul-inspired vocal stylings. In 2006, Laveaux released a first full-length album of her own songs. It was co-produced with percussionist Rob Reid (on tabla and cajon) and Lisa Patterson of Imaginit Music Studios. The most recent version of that self-produced release, "Camphor and Copper" also features tracks by Majiker (Camille). The album includes covers by Laveaux's influences - Elliott Smith and Eartha Kitt. Mélissa is currently accompanied on tour by Mano Razajanato (standup bass) and Sebastien Lete (drums and percussions)
