Artist Bio
|
In 2005 one of the brightest new stars on the Melodic Rock scene appeared during the hot
summer time. In July of that year Blanc Faces, headed by the brothers duo, Robbie and Brian
La Blanc debuted with their self titled album showing the world that the time for big harmonies
was not over.
With a stunning production (with a mix courtesy of Dennis Ward of Pink Cream
69) and some truly brilliant songs, Blanc Faces managed to catch the attention of the entire
Melodic Rock oriented press and loads of new fans.
Following the huge responses, Blanc Faces appeared for the first time in Europe at the first
edition of the United Forces of Rock Festival in Ludwigsburg, Germany where they literally
took the crowd by storm.
Little by little the two brothers (who by the way have an outstanding career in music including
providing background vocals on music involving Toto lead singer Bobby Kimball and legendary
singer Ronnie Spector) started putting together musical material for the second album which
they completed in the summer of 2009.
Not wanting to touch a team that gave superb results on the debut record, Blance Faces worked
again with Kyle Woodring (Dennis DeYoung/Styx; Survivor; John Mellencamp) on drums, Jeff
Batter (Cannata) on keyboards, and Butch Taylor and Michael Patzig on lead guitar.
Just a few
weeks after the completion of the record the sad news of Kyle Woodring passing reached
everyone, so the entire album is dedicated to this amazing musician.
Dennis Ward (Pink Cream 69) delivered once again a superior quality in the mixing sessions so
once again the end result is an astonishing album that restores the faith in Classic AOR / Melodic Rock music.
If you are a fan of Journey, Foreigner and Survivor, you will love this recording!
