Charles Bradley
On April 26, 2012, the world-famous vocalist Charles Bradley and his Extraordinaires grace the stage of the Cigale in Paris. Success did not come easily for the American. Before Bradley (1948-2017) even considered a career as a singer, he tried to make ends meet with countless odd jobs. Only in 1996 he finally followed in the footsteps of his great idol, soul icon James Brown. Brown and Bradley shared the talent to bring an audience to ecstasy. With his mix of funk, soul, and R&B, Bradley has developed a sound of his own, in which a keen ear might find a few traces of James Brown.
