.. Fred Chapellier-Reelin'and Rocking-tribute to Roy Buchanan envoyé par ncha10
Fred was born in 1966 in Metz, France . He started playing drums he was 12 years old until 1981... Then, at the tender age of 15, he started playing guitar. "EUREKA" - the revelation! Immediately, he felt the call of the blues and along the years, found himself accompanying the likes of: Don Ray Johnson, Boney Fields, Audrey Madison, Neal Black, Tom Principato and many other "blues" giants (in his eyes). In his search for more creative freedom, he formed his own band, "The Fred Chapellier Blues Band" with Pat Machenaud on drums, Abder Benachour on bass & Damien Cornelis ..boards, and they recorded two albums - "Blues Devil" (2003) and "l'Oeil du Blues" (2005) ! In 2004, he was acclaimed "Best New Blues Artist of The Year" and "Best Guitar Player of The Year" by "Les Trophées France Blues" ... In January 2007 Fred called upon his friend - producer, arranger, composer & keyboard Maestro Jean Alain Roussel, with whom he had struck up a solid friendship while playing on an album Jean had produced for world music artist N'Tomo in 2006, to embark on a joint-adventure, a "Tribute to Roy Buchanan" album - Fred's main "guitar hero/reference"...Terms agreed, and songs chosen, Fred proceeded to record & engineer the basic tracks at his "blue house Studio" in Châlons en Champagne, calling upon several long-time friends & guests, including Tom Principato, Billy Price, Neal Black, Miguel M, as well as members of Fred's own "Blues Band", to perform, with Jean assuming the "Producer" role (Jean had produced & composed for Roy Buchanan, & recorded with Cat Stevens, Bob Marley, The Police, 10cc & Thin Lizzy etc)... Then, off Fred went to Jean's "Shakti Studios" near Paris to complete the production under the guidance of Jean behind the recording console, after transferring the original HD recordings to computer. The finished product was immediately picked up for France, by "DIXIEFROG RECORDS"... and for U.S.A by "MAJESTIC RECORDS" ...The album, "Fred Chapellier & friends - A Tribute to Roy Buchanan" (9th. November, 2007). Fred and Billy Price (who sang with Roy Buchanan from 1973 to 1976) became good friends and they are working now on their new album "Night work" (out may 2009 Dixiefrog records)! Fred moved to Pittsburgh for the recording sessions. Please take the time to visit http://www.myspace.com/pricechapellier .You wanna know what the blues is all about? Then - go to see Fred on stage!
