HISTORICAL BIOGRAPHY
As a teenager growing up in New York, Lucky, Pierre LeBlanc made his debut with the Kompa group Patchou Combo and studied Jazz with guitarist Claude Dennise. In 1978, Lucky joined the U.S. Air Force where he met the infamous bass player Vinni, and together they formed the band Executive Suite. Through a series of talent competitions - first at the Air base level, then the Air command level, then the World wide level - Lucky Pierre was selected to tour with the world famous U.S. Air Force TOPS IN BLUES BAND.
Upon relocating to Miami in 1984, Lucky Pierre joined the group Voila, a seven-piece variety band. Voila was a local success doing both club gigs and playing major festivals in Miami, such as Goombay, Miss Haiti Beauty Pageant and Zouk Scandal at the Marine Stadium.
In 1988, he formed the group “Vision” with friend and long-time associate Remy. For the next four years, they played venues such as Sundays on the Bay, Shooters (North Miami Beach) and Mombassa Bay (Fort Lauderdale, Florida).
Even though, Lucky was deeply engaged by other cultural promoters, he never forget his roots.
In 1991, Lucky collaborated with the great saxophonist Loubert Chancy in the “Loubert Chancy & Friends” project which featured Compas greats such as Anderson Cameau, Nestor Azero and Michelle Angus. Lucky left Vision in 1992 and took a break from the live scene to sharpen his production skills.
He founded the five piece group D’Votion in January 1994, and performed on a regular basis at Mangos, South Beach's top live entertainment venue from October 1994 to February 1995, and at Cafe Iguana. David Wallack, owner of Mangos, said at the time, “D’votion is one of the best groups he has heard."
In 1996, Lucky Pierre signed a recording contract with Antilles Mizik and released two CDs under that label. The first one entitled “Superstar” featured TABOU COMBO’s bass player Yves Abel. The second, entitled “Pirouli” was co-produced with Jeff Wainwright and released in July 1999. The album also featured the great Haitian trumpet player Andre Dejean, the fabulous vocal group Saima and drummer Andrew Massac.
Lucky inaugurated his 24-bit digital recording studio in 1999 and has worked on numerous projects since then.
