Bio / Background
WHO IS CAROLE FREDERICKS? A phenomenal voice... a legendary musical presence...overflowing generosity... strength and simplicity. Carole Fredericks succumbed to a heart attack June 7, 2001 while on tour in Dakar, Senegal (West Africa). She was 49 years old. In 1979, she emigrated to France. Although French was not her native tongue, Fredericks mastered the language and became a renowned recording artist in the French-speaking world. For more than 22 years Paris, France was her home. Know as "Black Mama" to millions of music fans around the world, Fredericks' vocal style gave birth to the soulful rhythm and blues sounds prevalent in contemporary French rock music. Her death left an unmistakable void in the music world and in the hearts of millions of fans. The French Ministry of Culture requested that Fredericks be laid to rest with other luminaries in historic Montmartre Cemetary.
Springfield (1996) was recorded in July 1996.
↓ more ↓For her first solo album, Carole Fredericks decided to sing what she knew best - the blues and gospel. The entire album is recorded in English. Ms. Fredericks wrote the lyrics to most of the 12 original songs. She is accompanied by the Lafayette Inspirational Ensemble of Brooklyn, NY. The album also features You Had It Comin' a rare duet with older brother blues musician Taj Mahal. The album Springfield (named after her hometown in Massachusetts) is a tribute to her idols - Aretha Franklin, Mahalia Jackson, Sam and Dave, and the Beatles.
