Melvin Brannon was born on July 6, year unknown, in Seattle, Washington, USA

Melvin studied music at the Mount Hood Community College. He played in various bands - including Top 40, jazz-fusion, funk, blues and rock bands. This showed Melvin's incredible talent and ability to play any style of music

Melvin joined the Dan Reed Network after allegedly hassling the guys for an audition. And then they heard him play....

Melvin has been all over the place since Dan Reed Network split up in 1993

Melvin recorded with, and then toured with Stevie Salas in Japan & Europe (including the Garage in Highbury, London, just up the road from Seven Sisters Road (!)) - that was some gig and I couldn't have been more surprised when I saw Melvin up on the stage with Stevie. Back in Portland, Melvin recorded a couple of albums with a trancey experimental band called 'Land of The Blind'

And in 2000, Melvin got back to letting it rip, joining Edgar Winter's touring band
