Carlo D’Amour
Latin Lounge — Fremantle
While studying opera at the Australian National University, Carl Fidler was destined to meet young classical guitarist and 60’s Latin pop guru, Teo Dimov. The two became instant friends and continue to create music together to this day. Teo introduced Carl to the music of Antonio Carlos Jobim and the hypnotic grooves of the Bossa Nova and the Samba. This encounter spawned a life-long love affair with latin music which lead to a succession of residencies across Australia and France.
Carlo D’Amour is a velvety cruise through Latin lounge music, paying homage to his influences Dimov, Jobim and a sprinkling of Doris Day.
His first release Au Paradis has recently been awarded Top 5 in the WAM Song of the Year – global music section.
This EP will be released through Shiny Pill Records ahead of the winner’s announcement on the 19th of June.
All songs written, arranged and produced by Carl Fidler except for Au Paradis, lyrics by Annick Cabelduc, and I Was Made For Lovin’ You written by KISS.
