Herself (Vocals, piano, guitar)
Filmed in October 2015, “Live At The Olympia Paris” captures Melody Gardot in concert at the legendary Belle Époque era venue in the French capital. The show focuses primarily on songs from her most recent album “Currency Of Man” and 2009’s “My One And Only Thrill” with a couple of surprise tracks thrown in for good measure. Melody Gardot’s performance is both intimate and emotional and her band are at the top of their form.

Queens of Jazz: The Joy and Pain of the Jazz Divas
Self
The documentary tracks the diva's difficult progress as she emerges from the tough, testosterone-fuelled world of the big bands of the 30s and 40s, to fill nightclubs and saloons across the US in the 50s and early 60s as a force in her own right. Looking at the lives and careers of six individual singers (Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Peggy Lee, Sarah Vaughan, Nina Simone and Annie Ross), the film not only talks to those who knew and worked with these queens of jazz, but also to contemporary singers who sit on the shoulders of these trailblazing talents without having to endure the pain and hardship it took for them to make their highly individual voices heard above the prejudice of mid-century America.
Melody Gardot - Live at AVO Session 2012
Vocals, piano, guitar
With "The Absence" Melody Gardot presents her third album in 2012. Almost titled as the new "Diva des Jazz", the singer is breaking new ground in which flamenco, fado and samba are the predominant musical colors. The 27-year-old American went on a trip around the world for this, and so each title of the new album tells its own story of cultural encounters in Portugal, Morocco, Argentina and Brazil.
