Biography

Melba Hill, 29 October 1945, New York City, New York, USA. Based in New York, Melba Moore first attracted attention in the Broadway production of Hair. Although she has continued her thespian inclinations, winning an award for her performance in the musical Purlie, Moore has also forged a successful singing career.

In 2010, Moore collaborated with producer Jimmy D Robinson on several Club/Dance singles. These singles are "Soul Freak", "Stop It", "Night Creatures", "One More Chance", "In The Fire", and "Moonchild." All of the singles have been released on MP3 Download format.
