RP: Philippe is an amazing singer too and composer, producer, music producer and
he released the album under my name, the one you often broadcast on your radio
(”Profile”), and it will be our pleasure to send you also the album of Philippe to listen
to. He's written the songs and also the new album very soon.
BiTS: Well, tell me about the new album. Is it already made?
RP: Yes, it is already made. The name will be “Grand Duet”. In French also it’s the same
words. It means the same and the album is ready but it's going to be released soon
because we are waiting for the date of the release.
Our big partners and also the distributor will decide the best date to organise the
release. Very soon we will publish also the videos on YouTube, you will see our new
show.
BiTS: What sort of music is it on the album? Is it Celtic music and blues, or what?
RP: Both. Celtic, blues, country, pop, French songs.
BiTS: And are they songs that you've written yourself?
RP: Yes, all the songs are written by Philippe and I, and for the French lyrics it's
Philippe with also some partners like an artist we love a lot. His name is Fred Zito and
also with a man who is one of the best writers in the world for French. The English
lyrics are written by ourselves, Philippe and I.
