CHAPPO fuses indie rock with swamp blues, New Orleans jazz progressions, a sweet embrace of pop and an occasional hip-hop beat.

(展开全部) CHAPPO fuses indie rock with swamp blues, New Orleans jazz progressions, a sweet embrace of pop and an occasional hip-hop beat. It is music you’d make with a tire iron, a hubcap and a one-string guitar in the middle of the swamp, a social-political commentary in an adventure song. The charismatic frontman, Alex Chappo, has a voice that has been known to call up the comparison to Neil Young and his innovation and performance reminiscent of the likes of Beck or The Flaming Lips. Their debut, Media Machine, was produced by Andrew Felluss and features Gabe Cummins on electric guitar, Dan Asher on bass, Simon Lott on drums, Pat McLellan plays keys, Chris Olson on saxophone and Alex Chappo on acoustic guitar, harmonica and lead vocals.
Singer-songwriter and Baton Rouge, Louisiana-native Alex Chappo has been living in the East Village and playing New York’s music scene since 2005. In 2007, Alex partnered with New York producer Andrew Felluss on a new project to capture the raw energy found in his live shows. Andrew and Alex brought together a group of musicians with the same type of passion and a background and training in jazz and blues. “I knew when we hit the first take of the session, something was taking place,” Alex says as he flashes a smile. “It wasn’t a flawless take, but it was infused with a rusty surge of energy and excitement that sucks a person in.” They turned the project into a full-length album, Media Machine, and the band CHAPPO emerged.
The band advises, “When you come see a CHAPPO show, you should bring a tattered umbrella, your father’s dusty mallet to keep a bloody beat, some sparklers, your pretty bag-o-tricks, a vintage pint glass that you can cheers gleefully with, and something pink.”
