French singer and songwriter CharlElie Couture is coming on stage for the San Francisco premiere concert of his newest release, Lafayette.
With his distinctive stony nasal voice and his strong regional accent, CharlElie Couture is one of the most colourful figures to have emerged from the new French music scene. Equally at home sitting behind his piano or strumming his acoustic guitar, CharlElie has experimented with a number of different musical styles in the course of his career, exploring rock and electronic music before re-discovering the blues on his latest album, Lafayette.
The artist ranked in 2010 by Rolling Stones magazine in the top 25 of the 100 albums that marked the History of French Rock with his emblematic "Poèmes Rock" (Island), starts off an American tour that includes a stop over in San Francisco for our greatest pleasure.
The rock poet and musical painter went to the heart of the Louisiana bayou to record his twentieth studio album. The raw, festive album wonderfully sums up the essence of the music he has been making for nearly four decades: an intense, profound, hot, sultry blues, swampy rock, but tinged with poetry. The album’s fourteen original songs, recorded in French and English in the local style is a mixture of zydeco and swamp rock, swing and country.
CharlElie (vocal, piano, guitar) will be joined by Karim Attoumane (guitar) and Blake Miller (accordion, banjo and violin).
