‘A new vocal sensation in the UK’ – JazzFM
‘A fantastic piece of music,’' Robert Elms, BBC Radio London on Marvin’s Forbidden Fruit
Marvin Muoneké has been dubbed 'The Young Man with The Old Soul’ and once you hear his voice and style, you'll understand why. With a rich, velvety voice that’s been likened to Nat 'King' Cole, Johnny Hartman, Paul Robeson and Billy Eckstine, Marvin is also a gifted songwriter, arranger and trumpet player. He has a deep understanding of the Great American Songbook and an instant rapport with audiences.
He has toured with the award-winning swing band, Down For The Count and sung with the Vince Dunn Orchestra and NYJO (the National Youth Jazz Orchestra). In January 2024, Marvin was invited to perform a Frank Sinatra concert with the Armenian National Philharmonic Orchestra at the Aram Khachaturian Concert Hall in Yerevan.
He is now working in London with pianist / arranger Alex Webb, with whom he released a digital single, Forbidden Fruit in August 2025. With recent London appearances with Denys Baptiste and Gary Crosby as well as Webb, Marvin is a name to watch.
