About Vendor
Learn more about this vendor for your event.
MELINA is a captivating performer and 'specializes' in authentic German Oktoberfest Entertainment. She grew up in Germany, resides in NYC and sings fluent in both German & English. She performs with her 'live' band 'MELINA & the Oompahs' (Accordion, Tuba, Drums, Trumpet, Singer/MC/DJ). They put on a high energy OKTOBERFEST SHOW with music from traditional German Oompah, Waltzes, Polkas, traditional drinking songs, to hits from the 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's through now. (see song list for details). They also do audience participation. Melina has put together a program which will take you on a musical ride based on the Original Oktoberfest in Munich, Germany, where she has performed. For a smaller setting/event Melina also performs as a 'One woman/One man' DUO or TRIO band with a top notch midi & sound system (speakers, mixer, etc ...) which makes it sound like a full band (accordion, Tuba, Drums and/or a 'live' trumpet player) and still getting that 'fun' and 'entertaining' Oktoberfest experience - except for a LOWER PRiCE. Please inquire about quotes - they vary, depending on size and budget of venue/event.

When performing she mostly stays true to her own personality, yet can put herself into 'character' at any given time, like a chameleon. This is where her acting skills come in handy. A TRUE PERFORMER her 'home' is on stage ... and the audience is captivated by her and her talents with whatever style she takes on.
