Emmanuel Abiteboul AKA U-Nam began playing the guitar at age twelve, studying for three years at the CIM (1st European school for jazz) between 1986 and 1989. At the age of nineteen he turned professional, becoming a regular on Paris studio sessions. At age twenty-four he released a solo album on the American funk label, Lakeside Music (Bobby Byrd, The Meters, Buddy Miles), a clever mix of jazz guitar, funk, soul and hip-hop. He has devoted himself exclusively to songwriting, production and remixes working for national artists such as Organiz', Ophelie Winter, Houcine (Star Academy TV Show), Sofiane (Star Academy 4) and international acts such as Barry White, Honeyz, Luis Fonsi, Alsou, Kool & the Gang, Billy Paul, Before Dark and C Note. In 2005 U-Nam released his album ‘THE PAST BUILDS THE FUTURE’.
Now U-Nam is back with a brand new ambitious project, involving US and French artists including keyboard Legend JEFF LORBER. The brand new album is more focused on his guitar with an impressive line-up of world-renowned musicians: Jeff Lorber, Paulinho DaCosta (Michael Jackson, Quincy Jones), Michael White (George Benson, Maze), Alex Al (Stevie Wonder), Maysa Leak (Incognito), Steve Harvey (The Temptations, Frank McComb, Donnie) and Melvin Davis (Chaka Khan). This album is called “Back From The 80s”, inspired by the music and musicians that U-Nam was listening to when he was a kid back at that time. The UK version features a bonus disc of great vocal tracks including RAHSAAN PATTERSON and PHIL PERRY.
Specialist radio shows in the UK have already started playing key tracks ie. Starpoint, Solar Radio, Smooth FM. Advertising is scheduled for Blues & Soul, Echoes and online specialist sites. Tour details are currently taking place to include all the summer festivals throughout Europe. |
