ANDREW STRONG (dans le rôle de Deco) nous a enchanté dans le film culte «The Commitments» d'Alan Parker et sort un premier album live avec en invité Claudia Tagbo et Nico Wayne Toussaint

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Andrew Strong (Deco, dans le film) a la seule voix blanche qu'on lui ait trouvé comparable est celle de Joe Cocker, c'est dire... Nominé pour un Grammy Award en 1991 avec une BO vendue à plus de 16 millions d'exemplaires, depuis Andrew s'est produit partout à travers le monde (et que trop rarement en France*) et il a eu la chance de partager la scène avec les Rolling Stones, Elton John, Prince, Lenny Kravitz et Bryan Adams. ..

Andrew Strong was a huge hit playing the role of Deco in Alan Parker’s cult movie The Commitments — more than 16 million copies of the soundtrack album sold across the planet. Nominated for a Grammy in 1991, Andrew left the group shortly after the film release, appearing on stage with the Rolling Stones, Elton John, Prince, Lenny Kravitz, Deep Purple and Bryan Adams (among others). A regular on the concert circuit (essentially in the US), he’s recorded for various majors between 1993 and 2006 (his 1993, 2001 and 2002 releases all went platinum).

Andrew is coming back even stronger today with this detonating live set, covering songs from The Commitments era, as well as several forgotten soul and blues-rock classics. Strong, and still at the top!

Nico Wayne TOUSSAINT
Nico Wayne Toussaint is a unique french blues artist. He is one of the rare artists to have created, starting from Chicago blues, a completely personal vocal and performance style. His current musical universe goes way beyond his earlier influences.

Nico was born on august 1973 in Toulon, France and started playing harmonica since the age of 18. He ran into the blues when he was 15, through Muddy Waters’record “Hard again” featuring James Cotton on harp. Since then, the wildness high energy of James Cotton’s playing have always been his musical credo.

With his explosive concerts and through his sheer talent he's managed to build a solid reputation in France and around the world (he tours regularly all over USA and Canada). His on stage charisma is exceptional. Here's his new album «Southern Wind Blowin’», a personal creation largely inspired by the music of America's deep south and peppered with african, lousianan, and jazzy spices.
