Biography
A sort of French Damon Albarn meets Beck meets Roy Orbison
meets Lloyd Robinson, a groovy looking fella with a talent
to match. Barthelemy Corbelet is a 28 year old solo artist.
Originally from Normandie, Barth studied anthropology at
the Sorbonne. After some other dubious jobs, Barth worked
for Warner Publishing as a A&R, but decided to quit. He
was involved in making experimental and short movies. And he
is still involved in the making of his videos. Now, he lives
in Bastille (Paris), where he used to work for Cash Converters
once. There, down the road, he bought all his second hand equipment
: a drum machine, some ancient keyboards and an analog 8-track
tape recorder. Suddenly he had all this time on his hands to play
around with music at home. While writing music for TV commercials,
he started working on his own material which became his debut
album "Essence Of Giraffe". After sending 10 copies to a few exclusive
labels, a strange e-mail correspondence caught the attention of
former Food Records boss Andy Ross for his new label: Bossmusic.
Food Records was the label of Blur, Jesus Jones, Idlewild etc.
"Essence Of Giraffe" was released in the UK in July 2002. Barth
played in London with his band (Camden Barfly, 93 Feeteast, MetroS)
and supported The Libertines, Shack, etc. He recorded lives and
talk shows on radio for BBC, SBN and XFM (John Kennedy╣s Explosure).
Barth supported the Pretenders on their UK tour and in Paris
(Le Bataclan). He recorded five songs and an interview for
Chris Douridas╣ radio show : New Ground on KCRW (Los Angeles).
Inevitably, the bedroom phase doesn╣t last forever :
Barth decided to record his second album "Under The Trampoline"
in studio, together with Mike Pelanconi (Graham Coxon, Gregory Isaac)
who co-produced the project. The result is a marvellous,
eccentric blend of fairground music, pop, dub and dadaist
lyrics! Taken from the album, the track "I Got You In My Dream"
features on the late compilation "Le Nouveau Rock╣ N╣ Roll Franτais".
