Ma-V-Elle is a three-piece New Zealand girl group best known for their top-40 singles in the New Zealand charts in the mid 1990s. The group consists of Lavina Williams, Marina Davis and Maybelle Galuvao. == Background == The group formed at James Cook High School, Manurewa in the mid 1990s. Ma-V-Elle's name comes from the first names of the three members - Marina, Lavina and Maybelle.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.amiright.com/names/origins/m.shtml )〕 The group was originally managed by Tim Mahon.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.audioculture.co.nz/people/blam-blam-blam )〕 Their debut album ''Spoken To'' was released in 1997, with the trio touring nationally and internationally, including two performances at Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club in London.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.amplifier.co.nz/artist/520/?full=1 )〕 Member Marina Davis left in 1998 for religious reasons, with Maybelle and Lavina continuing as a duo. The group released their second album, ''Angel'' in 1999, with a heavier, drum and bass-inspired sound. Both Maybelle Galuvao and Lavina Williams were nominated for the Most Promising Female Vocalist award at the 2000 New Zealand Music Awards, losing to Vanessa Kelly of Deep Obsession.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nzmusicawards.co.nz/2009/10/29/2000-winners/ )〕 In 2000 the duo recorded a version of "I Only Want to Be with You" that was used as the station identification jingle for TV2.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NiRo8pTfyhA )〕 Ma-V-Elle eventually split later in 2000, with members focusing on their solo careers and families.
