Leading with the sleek, soulful single “Sauve-moi de toi,” King Melrose’s 2014 self-titled debut heralded the arrival of a bold new voice on the Québécois pop scene. Part Bruno Mars-style showman, part John Mayer-esque troubadour, the King specializes in jubilant jams that are retro in spirit, but possess enough modern pop polish and rhythmic verve to woo contemporary dance floors. And even if you don’t speak French, he peppers the Prince-like falsetto funk of “L’amour me manque” with an Anglo chorus and outfits the acoustic charmer “Ne me laisse pas tomber” with an indelible whistle hook to ensure everyone feels welcome at his party.
