A bassist is yet to be signed In Harmony: Jon de Mello, head of the Mountain Apple Company and manager of The Brothers Cazimero, yesterday tied the knot with singer Melinda Caroll, who happens to be one of his artists.

They got hitched in simple ceremonies on Kauai. De Mello said prior to departing for the Garden Island: "We'll go into the hillside by helicopter and do it very quietly." Ah, romantic. Though de Mello prefers not to mix business with his private life, the bond between him and Caroll had blossomed over the past two years. Hence, the marriage. The "engagement" period had been on for several weeks, with only close personal friends and allies aware of the commitment to exchange "I do's." The couple should be back in Honolulu this week; she has a string of engagements to fulfill.

Indeed, consider her workload: Caroll sings from 5 to 7 p.m. weekdays at the Plaza Club downtown, then scurries over to Nick's Fishmarket, from a Tuesday-through-Saturday gig. from 7:30 to 9 p.m. On Sundays, she's at Trappers at the Hyatt Regency Waikiki; on Mondays, at Harry's Bar, by the Hyatt waterfall.

Of all things, Leed will be representing "Polynesia," not Hawaii, a somewhat misleading but intentional way of getting her in on the bill for that segment, U.S. origins would not qualify. Crystal Gayle and Charley Pride will co-host this particular show. Scores of other country biggies are participating, but through unusual themes: Indigo, Cajun, Bluegrass, and label affiliations -Whistling Dixie: John Norris the New Orleans Jazz Band are on a leave from Trappers, through June 10.
