The Melody Clouds
Great Day

The Melody Clouds were
organized in 1965 by the late Leo Jackson, Sr. Originally, the group was made up of all family members.
Now the group has four family members and four new additions.
This new combination has created one of the finest Gospel groups in
New Orleans.
With a sound for the
old and the young, The Melody Clouds appeal to all ages of any race. Over the years, The Melody Clouds have
previously recorded 3 albums: “Pass Me Not “Fires “I Won t Give Up On
The Lord.
The Melody Clouds sing
with feeling, spirit, love and heart and that carries them to a new style,
while retaining the Gospel quartet flavor!
The Melody Clouds feel
that it is appropriate that they thank God for their musical family. A special thanks to the late Leo Jackson,
Sr. who started it all and also to their mother and sisters. Thanks to the wives who endure the busy
schedule of a working group. Thanks
to our producer, Gary Edwards, for having faith in our music.
And we want to offer our appreciation to the radio personalities that
play our music, and, of course, to our fans.
May God bless you all.
