“A larger than life figure with a generous spirit, Carole Fredericks was
a performer who threw herself into her live performances body and
soul.”
Pierre Rene-Worms for rfimusique.com.
The year is 1999. December 2-11. Beloved legendary singer, Carole Fredericks
takes to the stage at Saint-Germain-des-Prés Auditorium in Paris. Alain Pingouin
Regis bellows her arrival…and arrive she did! Carole Fredericks effortlessly
delivers R&B, Pop, Rock and the Blues in both English and French. She held
nothing back and gave band members a license to do the same. Jean Marc
Haroutiounian/bass guitar, Pierre-Jean Scavino/piano, Cyril Tarquiny/guitar,
Laurent Coppola/drums did not hesitate to respond in kind as background
vocalists Yvonne Jones and Maria Pöpkiewicz brought vocal spice to each song.
No two shows were the same. Each night, Carole chatted with the audience,
musicians and singers making each performance an intimate affair.
The limited-edition Carole Fredericks LIVE! album showcases 9 powerhouse
performances and captures rare moments on stage with an artist who left us too
soon.

Albums
Springfield
Carole Fredericks (1996)
Gospel music and the Blues are sisters in song. Both genres are the issue of the Negro Spirituals and both share worldwide popularity. If Gospel music sings of the grace of God, the Blues denotes the difficulties and challenges of life. They tell the same story, one from a secular point of view and the other from a spiritual perspective…both with genuine and often brutal honesty. There are lessons to be learned from each. Every once in awhile a voice will come along that reveals the depth of kinship between Gospel and Blues music. The late Carole Fredericks was such a voice. In 1996, she released the album Springfield as a testament to the intimate bond between Gospel, Blues and the human condition.
