Manu Lanvin surrounds himself with Charlélie Couture, Axel Bauer, Popa Chubby and many other exceptional artists to pay tribute to Calvin Russell!In 2022, La Traverse de Cléon, a temple of Anglo-Saxon music, asked Manu Lanvin to orchestrate and pay tribute to his friend Calvin Russell, a Texan artist who passed away in 2011, but also an essential songwriter on the blues rock scene in France and Europe. In just a few days, the box office was sold out, reflecting how much this charismatic character with simple melodies and poignant lyrics was still etched in the hearts of the French.It was from the success of this concert that the idea of creating a tribute album matured, surrounded by guests from diverse backgrounds, some having known Calvin, others discovering him. From Charlélie Couture to Popa Chubby, including Axel Bauer, Gérard Lanvin, Johnny Gallagher, Hugh Coltman, Théo Charaf or even Beverly Jo Scott, Craig Walker, Fred Chapellier, David Minster, Neal Black, Boney Fields and Haylen, all answered Manu Lanvin's invitation to revive this repertoire at the crossroads of blues, rock and country.
