Camille Bertault

It’s true that she is a young woman of her time with a tangle of solid roots. Herfather is an amateur jazz pianist and she has always sung with him on and off. Butat the age of eight, she sat down at the piano and set about the wholeconservatoire experience (Ravel, Debussy, Chopin, Scriabin) while developing apassion for the vocal stylists of Brazil (Elis Regina, Djavan, Cesar Camargo). Andshe also listened to Jeff Buckley, Björk, Fiona Apple, Léo Ferré, Barbara, SergeGainsbourg…

When she was twenty, she rebelled. She shut her scores, moved to a drama classand wrote and played pieces for children. “I started to sing in a cabaret style,somewhere between a narrator and actor. But it was jazz that bewitched me.” Bychance she ended up at the Paris Conservatory which gave her solid training inharmony, composition and jazz singing. Camille Bertault discovered the theorybehind her spontaneous creations, combined improvisation and her cabaret joys,came back to Ravel via jazz – “the pleasure of combining all the stages I hadpassed through”.

The next stages were natural: she filmed herself singing Coltrane’s part on GiantSteps and the buzz ensued. Soon afterwards in 2016 her first album, En vie [Alive],emerged. Then François Zalacain, head of American label Sunnyside, introduced herto Michael Leonhart and Dan Tepfer. Michael, a trumpeter and multi-instrumentalist would produce her new album while Dan would accompany her onpiano. “They’re both French-speaking and interested in the text,” enthuses CamilleBertault, who doesn’t want to make albums where the voice just serves as aninstrument. She likes lyrics to hold the limelight.

Rory Block $20.00$20.00 Sunday 2/10 7:00 pm Buy Tickets

Legendary Guitarist, Vocalist, & Acoustic Blues Master hits the Nighttown Stage

for Special Solo Show!

Heralded as “a living landmark” (Berkeley Express), “a national treasure” (GuitarExtra), and “one of the greatest living acoustic blues artists” (Blues Revue), RoryBlock has committed her life and her career to preserving the Delta blues traditionand bringing it to life for 21st century audiences around the world.

Rory grew up in Manhattan a family with Bohemian leanings. Her father owned aGreenwich Village sandal shop, where musicians like Bob Dylan, Maria Muldaur andJohn Sebastian all made occasional appearances.

During these years, her life was touched – and profoundly changed – by personalencounters with some of the earliest and most influential Delta blues masters of the20th century. She made frequent visits to the Bronx, where she learned her firstlessons in blues and gospel music from the Reverend Gary Davis. She swappedstories and guitar licks with seminal bluesman Son House, Robert Johnson’s mentor

She left home at 15 with her guitar and a few friends – heading for California on atrip marked by numerous detours and stops in small towns. Along the way, shepicked her way through a vast catalog of country blues songs and took her firststeps in developing a fingerpicking and slide guitar style that would eventually beher trademark.

Rory signed a record deal with the Boston-based Rounder label, which released herHigh Heeled Blues in 1981. Rolling Stone referred to the album as “some of the

most singular and affecting country blues anyone – man or woman, black or white,old or young – has cut in recent years.”

Back in a groove that felt comfortable and fulfilling, Block threw herself headlonginto an ambitious touring schedule that helped hone her technical and vocal skills toa razor’s edge, and at the same time nurture a distinctive voice as a songwriter.She stayed with Rounder for the next two decades, making records thatsimultaneously indulged her affinity for traditional country blues and served as aplatform for her own formidable songwriting talents.

The world finally started taking notice in the early 1990s, and Block scorednumerous awards throughout the decade. Her visibility overseas increaseddramatically when Best Blues and Originals, fueled by the single “Lovin' Whiskey,”went gold in parts of Europe. She brought home Blues Music Awards four years in arow – two for Traditional Blues Female Artist of the Year, and two for Best AcousticBlues Album of the Year. Then in 1997, she won the Blues Music Award for TheLady and Mr. Johnson, a tribute to Robert Johnson, taking home Acoustic Album ofthe Year.

Today, after more than twenty highly acclaimed releases and five Blues MusicAwards, Block is at the absolute height of her creative powers, bringing a world fullof life lessons to bear on what she calls “a total celebration of my belovedinstrument and best friend, the guitar.”
