Melody Gardot, born 1985, is an American jazz vocalist, singer-songwriter, and musician from New Jersey. Apple Music lists her genre as Jazz and gives her birth date as February 2, 1985.
Her music blends vocal jazz, blues, folk, bossa nova, Latin, Brazilian influences, and sophisticated pop. She first gained attention after writing and recording music during recovery from a serious accident; her official biography says music therapy became central to her recovery and artistic identity.

Apple Music lists well-known songs such as “Baby I’m a Fool,” “Worrisome Heart,” “Morning Sun,” “Your Heart Is As Black As Night,” “Preacherman,” “La Vie en Rose,” and “If the Stars Were Mine.”
Melody Gardot is known for her smoky, intimate voice, elegant jazz phrasing, multilingual repertoire, and atmospheric songwriting. She is especially admired in contemporary vocal jazz for combining classic jazz influences with modern, international styles.
