Marvin Muoneké, one of the South West’s up and coming jazz artists, is a vocalist, songwriter, trumpeter and performing artist with a voice that has been often referred to as rich, deep and smooth. Bringing the songs and sounds of mid-20th century jazz and popular music to modern listeners of all ages, Marvin possesses a rare and beautiful presence that can light up any audience of any venue within seconds.

In 2014, he did a brief stint with the National Youth Jazz Orchestra, conducted by Mark Armstrong. Over the last ten years, Marvin has performed in several theatres and clubs at home and abroad, including The Weston Playhouse, Southampton’s Concorde Club, Pizza Express Holborn, Theatre Royal Winchester and the Pavillon Gabriel on Champs-Élysées in Paris.

Nominated in 2024 at the prestigious Boisdale Music Awards for Jazz Artist Of The Year alongside icons like Courtney Pine, Emma Smith, Ezra Collective, and Nubya Garcia, Marvin’s star is undeniably on the rise. Playing 7-8 gigs a week, Marvin has built a fearsome reputation around the South West and is now regularly seen in major jazz venues in London. He has featured on TV in both The Voice and Britain’s got Talent and has released two albums with a third currently in production. He regularly tours with the “Down for the Count” jazz orchestra and has twice been invited to perform with the Armenian Philharmonic orchestra. He is a captivating performer, musician and band leader with an assurance that belies his youth. His deep and silky voice has to be heard to be believed and really does the repertoire justice.

His Quartet, consisting of some of the finest jazz musicians in the South West can play hot and cool, bringing a great sound of music tinged with exuberance and excitement.
